About Leanne
Leanne Kemp brings a warm, open style to therapy and focuses on the person in front of her. She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the client's needs and experiences at the heart of sessions. Leanne does not judge or tell people what to do; instead she creates space to talk and think through difficult decisions and feelings.
Leanne holds the BACP credential, which is shown in her profile as BACP. She has 13 years’ experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also works with issues such as grief, low self-esteem, sleeping difficulties and parenting strain. Codependency and attachment concerns are listed among her additional focuses.
Her background includes work as a counselling psychotherapist and psychologist, and experience as a specialist mental health mentor. That mix means she brings practical knowledge of mental health supports and everyday coping strategies to sessions. She has worked with people affected by domestic abuse and childhood trauma, and with people who are neurodivergent, including autistic people and those with ADHD.
In sessions Leanne aims to help people find a way forward at their own pace. She uses a straightforward, non-technical way of talking so people can make sense of their feelings. The emphasis is on listening closely and building realistic steps towards change.
People who choose her often want a calm, empathetic space to explore life changes, relationship strain, career stress or long-standing emotional pain. Leanne describes her role as walking alongside people as they work out practical next steps.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy means the session focuses on the person's own experience and priorities. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and follows the client's lead to help them make sense of difficult feelings. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and codependency issues.Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, concrete steps that move a person towards their goals. Sessions concentrate on what is already working and on simple, practical actions to build momentum. This can be useful for coping with stress, making changes in daily routines, and managing specific problems like sleep or work stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leanne will discuss different ways of working and agree on what fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. She treats the choice as a collaborative decision and adjusts the approach as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the available session formats before booking as the profile does not list them explicitly. Online work can help fit counselling into a busy life, making it easier to schedule sessions around work, caring duties or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or conversations without needing to be on camera, depending on the agreed format.
