About Leanne

Leanne Glennon is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and bereavement. She works in a relational way, getting to know each person and what they want to change. Leanne holds BACP accreditation and draws on 17 years of experience in clinical settings across the United Kingdom.

Her practice often begins with building a steady connection. She aims to create a calm starting point where clients can say what feels most urgent.

Background and approach

From there she helps people notice patterns, understand how their nervous system reacts, and find practical ways to manage distress. Leanne has substantial experience supporting people affected by sexual abuse, domestic abuse, complex bereavement and self-harm. She also works with concerns linked to parenting, adoption and foster care, attachment and relationship problems, and LGBT issues.

Her broad focus covers chronic illness, body image, eating concerns, and communication difficulties. Trauma work with Leanne follows a phased approach that begins with safety and stabilisation, then moves into remembrance and processing, and finally reconnection and integration. She explains each step and revisits phases as needed so work proceeds at a pace that suits the individual.

Leanne values collaboration and respects each person as the expert in their life. She uses talking therapies and creative techniques when helpful, and aims to support people without judgement. Her style is steady, practical and focused on helping clients toward clearer choices and improved day-to-day coping.

How evidence-based techniques work online

Leanne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and helping people manage symptoms. One common approach she uses helps people notice how thoughts and behaviours interact and then develop practical strategies to reduce anxiety and stress. Another approach she applies is trauma-focused work that moves through safety and stabilisation, remembrance and processing, and reconnection; this is helpful for people who have experienced specific traumatic events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, history and preferences and together decide which techniques to try first. Plans are adjusted over time so the method matches changing needs and what feels most helpful for the person.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a short break, and messaging or live chat can suit ongoing check-ins or those who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family life and location, and to choose the format that best supports progress.
