Leanne AlansonNCPS

Leanne Alanson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and depression. She is named Leanne in her practice and brings a calm, listening approach to sessions. Leanne is a registrant member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS, and she works with adults who want a steady, practical place to talk.

People come to her when they are dealing with bereavement, health worries, pregnancy and childbirth related concerns, or struggles with life changes. She says sessions are warm and non-judgemental. Leanne aims for clear, manageable ways to handle emotions rather than complex jargon.

Her style is client-led and down to earth. She listens first, then helps people name what matters most to them. Leanne adapts how she works to each person’s situation and pace. That can mean short-term focus on a crisis, or longer conversations about meaning and purpose.

Leanne has three years of experience as a professional counsellor. She combines that practical experience with the NCPS registration to guide people through loss and life transitions. Many come wanting help with panic, social anxiety, abandonment concerns, blended family tensions, or women's issues.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. For people getting started she asks them to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to her availability.

How therapeutic approaches inform online care

Leanne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape her work. One common focus is grief-focused conversation where the emphasis is on naming feelings, remembering what matters, and finding ways to live with loss. This approach suits people dealing with bereavement, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and pregnancy-related loss.

Another approach is short-term, problem-focused work that looks at immediate symptoms like panic attacks or high anxiety. That involves practical coping steps, simple breathing and grounding strategies, and checking what helps day to day. It can be useful for stress, panic disorder and social anxiety.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options with each person and agree what to try first. Choices are based on the client's goals, current challenges and how they prefer to work, and the plan can change as progress is made.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins, and offering flexible scheduling across time zones. It also lets people continue work while away from their usual area, but the exact practical arrangements should be checked when booking.
