About Natalie
Natalie Leslie is a counsellor who draws on person-centred and emotionally focused ways of working to help people through difficult times. She is BACP registered and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. Natalie encourages small steps toward clearer thinking and greater emotional balance.
Natalie has three years of experience supporting people with depression, anxiety and grief. She also helps with practical life stresses such as parenting strains, relationship problems, career uncertainty and sleep difficulties. Codependency and feelings of emptiness are among the additional concerns she addresses.
Her approach is warm and collaborative. Sessions focus on listening carefully, naming emotions and helping clients notice patterns that keep causing pain. Conversations are guided by what each person brings, not by a rigid agenda.
Alongside person-centred work, Natalie uses elements of emotionally focused practice to help people reconnect with their feelings. That can be useful when sadness, overwhelm or relationship wounds are at the heart of the problem. The aim is to help clients understand their emotions and make choices that fit their lives.
People who reach out are supported to set realistic goals and to try practical changes between sessions. Natalie highlights self-compassion and steadier daily routines as common starting points. The focus is on learning that small shifts can lead to clearer perspective and better coping over time.
How client-centred and emotionally focused work fits online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of the session. The counsellor listens without judgement and reflects back what they hear to help people find their own solutions. This approach suits issues like low mood, self-esteem struggles and general life stress.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and work with painful emotions. It supports reconnecting with feelings and finding new ways to respond. EFT can be helpful when anxiety, grief or relational wounds are keeping someone stuck.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The counsellor will ask about your needs, goals and preferences and will suggest ways of working that might suit you. Together you can try different approaches and adjust the focus as you go.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily routines. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by audio when time is tight, while others choose video to make face-to-face conversation easier. Registered or accredited professionals can help you find a practical setup that fits your life.
