About Leanne
Leanne Glennon is a BACP counsellor who focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship. She takes time to understand what you want to work on and shapes sessions around those concerns. Her way of working is collaborative and respectful of each person's story.
She blends trauma-informed care with trauma-focused techniques when needed. That can include work based on the three-phase model of trauma recovery: safety and stabilisation, remembrance and trauma processing, and reconnection and integration.
Background and approach
Leanne often uses elements from trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy alongside creative and emotion-focused methods. Leanne has 17 years of experience and has supported people after sexual abuse, domestic violence, and complex bereavement. She has particular experience with self-harm and researched therapist experiences of self-harm for her MSc thesis.
Her background means she is familiar with complicated presentations and multiple, overlapping difficulties. Practical conversations in sessions cover current problems, past events, and helpful coping strategies. She aims to help people understand how the brain and nervous system respond to stress and trauma and to develop stabilising skills before moving into deeper processing.
Leanne also works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, grief, family issues, and matters relevant to LGBT people. She highlights individual strengths and supports clients to find workable solutions without judgement.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Leanne uses trauma-focused cognitive behavioural elements and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people understand and change unhelpful patterns. These approaches involve noticing thoughts, feelings and behaviours, learning practical skills to manage symptoms, and gradually making changes that reduce distress.She also draws on emotion-focused and creative techniques to help access and express difficult feelings. These methods can support processing loss, attachment wounds, and complex bereavement when talking alone feels difficult.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which techniques fit best, reviewing what helps and adapting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative stance makes it easier to try different ways of working if something is not helpful.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy day and keeping continuity when travel is difficult. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm available options before booking. Many people find remote work useful for shorter check-ins, maintaining ongoing support, and accessing experienced therapists across regions.
