About Lesley
Lesley Nance is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. She also supports those dealing with family issues and concerns such as codependency and attachment worries. She works in a direct and compassionate way so people feel heard and understood from the first conversation.
Lesley uses an integrative approach that draws on several methods. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful patterns and learning practical steps to feel steadier day to day. She combines talking, breathing and mindfulness exercises with gentle challenge to help people shift perspective and cope better with strong emotions.
For people affected by traumatic memories and stuck emotional responses, Lesley offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often abbreviated as EMDR. EMDR is used to help the nervous system process distressing memories so they interfere less with everyday life.
She also uses solution-focused tools to set short-term goals and hypnotherapy techniques to support relaxation and behaviour change when appropriate. Over sessions, clients work at a pace that suits them and practice new skills between meetings.
Lesley is registered with NCPS. She brings nine years of experience in therapeutic work and accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.
How Lesley’s approaches translate to online therapy
Lesley uses Client-Centred Therapy and EMDR in ways that suit remote work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, reflection and practical coping strategies to help people feel understood and develop clearer ways of responding to stress and relationship strain. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, involves specific guided processes to help the nervous system reprocess distressing memories so they have less hold over daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and will decide together which methods to try first and how to adapt them for online sessions. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as therapy progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving and day-to-day life. It can allow shorter check-ins when needed, avoid travel time and make regular meetings simpler to keep.
