Leanne Alanson, NCPS

Leanne Alanson is a qualified and compassionate counsellor who supports people facing a wide range of emotional challenges, with a particular focus on bereavement and loss. She is an accredited registrant with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), a UK professional register, and she also maintains membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Leanne offers a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their feelings at a pace that feels comfortable to them. She tailors her support to the individual, combining empathic listening with practical guidance so people can make sense of their experience and find ways to move forward.

Whether someone is coping with the deep pain of losing a loved one, managing persistent health worries, or navigating other personal difficulties, Leanne adapts her approach to meet each person's needs. Her practice emphasizes respect for each client’s timeline and priorities, helping people process emotions in a way that honours their circumstances and supports gradual change.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online support

Leanne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques adapted for online delivery to help people work through a range of concerns. One common approach she uses is person-centred work, which focuses on empathic listening and helping clients articulate and process difficult emotions - this is often helpful for grief, relationship issues, and life transitions. Another approach is structured skills-based work that teaches practical tools for managing stress, anxiety, and panic - clients learn coping strategies and ways to change unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Leanne works collaboratively with clients and with registered professionals and therapists to determine which techniques best match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Leanne can be delivered by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into daily life and to access support from wherever the client is located.
