About Leanne

Leanne Kemp is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people find a way forward. She brings warmth and openness to sessions and focuses on each person’s unique needs. Leanne aims to create a calm space where people can talk without judgement and consider practical steps they want to take.

She has worked in counselling and mental health support for 13 years. During that time she has helped people with stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people coping with grief, sleep problems, anger and major life changes.

Leanne has experience supporting people affected by trauma and abuse, and she has worked with those who have experienced domestic abuse. She has also supported people with neurodivergent profiles, including autism and attention difficulties, and can help with related challenges such as sensory and routine needs.

Her practice includes work around relationships, parenting strains, career pressures and issues with self-esteem and body image. She also offers support for long-term health challenges, caregiver stress and the emotional impact of serious illness.

Leanne is a BACP member, which reflects her commitment to recognised professional standards. She works from the United Kingdom and offers a counselling style that centres the client’s goals and preferences.

How Leanne’s approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening, empathy and following the pace the person wants. It helps when someone needs space to talk and to make their own choices about change. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, practical steps and what is already working. It is useful for people who want concrete ideas to try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the style as needed. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions are more reflective or more action-oriented.

If you are considering online counselling, check which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other daily demands. They can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid the need to travel. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote work to keep continuity of care when life is busy, and the therapist will discuss practical arrangements and pacing with each person.
