Background and approach
Her sessions focus on practical ways to manage intense feelings and to rebuild confidence after loss or painful events. She supports people dealing with the emotional fallout of illness, caregiving strain, relationship breakdown and attachment wounds. In sessions, Leita concentrates on listening first and helping clients name what they feel.
She helps people notice patterns - for example in control issues, codependency or repeated abandonment fears - and then works with them to try new responses. The pace is set by the client and aims to feel manageable rather than rushed. Leita also offers support around ageing and bereavement, dissociation, communication problems and coping after disasters.
She explains options plainly and helps people prioritise one small change at a time. The goal is steadier day-to-day functioning and clearer choices about the future. Her approach is collaborative and practical.
Leita encourages small experiments between sessions and checks in on what works. She welcomes people who want a thoughtful, steady counsellor during a difficult time.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Leita uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding feelings and changing patterns. One common approach is working to identify and name emotions, which helps people reduce overwhelming reactions and respond more calmly in stressful moments. This can be useful for anxiety, grief and depressive episodes. Another approach involves spotting repetitive relationship patterns such as codependency or abandonment fears, and practising small behavioural experiments to try different responses and build confidence.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client will talk about problems, goals and preferences and choose methods together. Leita checks progress regularly and adapts methods if something isn’t helping, so the plan evolves with the client’s needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good when visual connection and body language help the conversation. Phone calls work well for lower bandwidth or a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging allow for flexible, written exchanges that can fit around work and family routines. These options make it easier to keep therapy going from different places and at different times.
