So far my sessions have been very useful, Leanne is very educated and compassionate when we speak about issues. She gives me work to do after the sessions which have been useful as well to practice putting things in place.

Leanne has helped me massively over the sessions we’ve had so far. For the first time in my life, I feel listened to and supported, and I’ve learned how to look at things from a new perspective.

I came to therapy initially as felt my mental and emotional health could improve by letting go of long standing and even ancestral baggage however the method of how I could do this eluded me all my life. I was troubled by rumination, felt at the mercy of my emotional reactions, felt burnout through lack of self care and boundaries, held a lot of resentment towards my family and just felt numb to life's joys. I had been seeking help since my late twenties but never seemed to be able to find a therapist who could really help me with this. Leanne is very insightful, empathic and kind. She creates a space where healing can occur and profound shifts can take place. I have grown so much this year, I am no long troubled by rumination, can process my emotions and feel more empowered at work and in life. I still have work to do to get to feeling joy on a regular basis but the letting go of having a troubled mind is a major step in the right direction. I am committed to continuing to work with Leanne to find a path to feeling really alive and contented within myself and I am optimistic that I can get there.

She cares for the people that are asking for her help and will walk by your side - no matter what.

Leanne is like a guardian angel or my fairies god mother. She has come into my life, picked me up and turned things around in my mind. She understands when I have wobbles, gets why I can't or won't do/act in certain ways and is always reassuring and sends the best workbooks across for me to complete in my own time. I am finding it super rewarding having this online connection. There is no disjointed aspect that I've experienced in past online therapies. She has an integrated approach to her therapy andtherefore can put on various expert hats to help and assist me. Absolutely perfect and I have already recommended her to my wellbeing lady at my GP surgery. Thank you for getting me such a perfect match!!!

Leanne is amazing! She guided and supported me through a very difficult breakup and the realisations that followed after. Processing emotions and healing suck big time and it is a looot of work, Leanne gave me the tools to successfully navigate through the situation - connect with myself, learn and rebuild my values, understand the importance of and establish boundaries. Through therapy I was able to discover parts of myself (genuinely surprised by some findings), I’ve got answers to questions that always bothered me and was able to validate feelings I didn’t even knew needed validation. It is a long process (will be here for a little while) but I’m really happy I have Leanne's support and experience in my corner. What really helped me was the safe space she created so I could share anything without fear of judgement, she addressed my needs/problems at the time I wanted to deal with them and fully accommodated my pace, while also suggesting areas I should start with when I was completely lost. I really liked the thought provoking questions that made me reflect, challenged me and helped me see the world and situations from a different perspective. Honestly, I don’t know if I would have been able to go through this period of my life in the healthy and mature way I did if it was not for Leanne.

The sessions with Leanne have helped me find stability in all that noisy anxious ADHD mess that I call my brain. She has great intuition and often knows better than me what the actual feelings behind all these thoughts are. Her bright attitude never fails to make my day. It's been wonderful so far. Looking forward to more!

She offers practical tips to help with issues of negative thinking and low self-esteem and she has helped me to heal from the trauma of previous relationships. She has provided practical tips which are easily incorporated to my day to day life. She offers flexible slots for my work schedule and checks in with me.
