About Leanne
Leanne Glennon is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 17 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns and LGBT issues. Her biography highlights work with sexual abuse, complex bereavement and domestic abuse.
Leanne describes her approach as relational and collaborative. She aims to get to know each person and the concerns they want to work on before planning the work. She draws on TF-CBT and CBT, emotion-focused and talking therapies, and creative techniques alongside her general clinical skills.
She offers trauma-informed and trauma-focused work. Trauma-focused therapy is used where people have experienced or witnessed specific traumatic events. Leanne often applies a three-phase model of trauma recovery that looks at safety and stabilisation, remembrance and processing, and reconnection and integration.
Leanne has significant experience supporting people affected by sexual abuse, complex traumatic bereavement and domestic abuse. She is also experienced in working with self-harm and researched therapists' experiences of self-harm interventions for her MSc thesis.
Her way of working begins with explaining how the brain and nervous system can respond to distress. From there she helps people develop insight and practical strategies. Leanne works collaboratively to find approaches that fit each person’s needs and goals.
She accepts clients from outside the UK and offers sessions in English. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online therapy options button.
Approaches used in online sessions and how they help
Leanne commonly uses trauma-focused cognitive behavioural approaches and standard cognitive behavioural therapy methods. Trauma-focused CBT helps people process specific traumatic events and work through memories and reactions. CBT targets unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and improve daily functioning.She also uses emotion-focused techniques and creative methods alongside talking therapies. Emotion-focused work helps people notice and make sense of feelings, which can be useful for grief, relationship difficulties and attachment issues. Creative techniques give different ways to express material that can be hard to put into words, which some people find helpful in trauma and bereavement work.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as sessions progress.
Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Please confirm which session formats are available before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to make regular contact easier and to support consistent progress.
