About Leanne
Leanne Kemp is a BACP counsellor with 13 years of experience supporting adults in the United Kingdom. She works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family worries, and the strains of life change. Leanne also helps people managing ADHD, bipolar conditions, grief, sleep problems and career stress.
Leanne uses a client-centred approach. That means the conversation begins with what matters most to the person sitting in front of her. She listens for strengths, values and what a person wants to change, rather than giving instructions on what to do.
She also draws on solution-focused work to help people identify small, practical steps. Those steps can be useful for breaking down big problems like moving out, starting a job, or coping after a loss. The mix of listening and short-term planning gives space for both feeling heard and making progress.
Leanne has worked in counselling and as a specialist mental health mentor. Her experience includes supporting people who have experienced trauma, domestic abuse, childhood bullying, and neurodivergent conditions such as autism and ADHD. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP.
Sessions aim to explore what is getting in the way now, and what might help next. Practical issues such as parenting pressure, career uncertainty, and the stress of early adulthood are common topics. People who want clear steps alongside reflective talking often find this approach helpful.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Leanne draws mainly on Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Client-Centred Therapy means the therapist listens closely and follows the person's concerns, helping them name feelings and priorities. This approach helps when someone feels overwhelmed by change, low mood, or complex past events.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps. It looks for what is already working and builds from there. That approach can suit practical problems like managing work stress, improving sleep routines, or planning next steps after university.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Leanne will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and she will adjust the balance of listening and practical planning as sessions continue. The process is collaborative and based on what the person wants to achieve.
