About

About Lee

Lee Freeman is a UK-based counsellor with a BACP credential and five years of practice. He supports adults who are facing issues such as trauma, anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, grief and addictions. He takes a calm, down-to-earth approach so people can talk openly and go at their own pace.

He commonly helps people who have experienced childhood or sexual abuse and those coping with coercive or narcissistic relationships. He also works with concerns around self-esteem, emotional overwhelm and intimacy-related difficulties.

Background and approach

He aims to help clients gain clearer boundaries and greater emotional stability. Lee combines elements of cognitive behavioural approaches with trauma-focused ideas and relational thinking. He uses emotional regulation strategies and practical tools so people can manage difficult feelings between sessions.

Sessions focus on making sense of past experiences and finding steps forward in everyday life. He describes his way of working as warm, grounded and collaborative. He does not promise quick fixes; instead he helps people build understanding and skills over time.

He encourages starting from wherever someone is, even if they do not have everything figured out. Sessions are offered in English and Lee accepts international clients. Prospective clients are invited to use the service Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Online support

How Lee's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive space. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them feel understood so they can explore issues like grief or low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses straightforward exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, lift mood and change unhelpful patterns. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety and some relationship struggles.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. Lee treats the choice of approach as collaborative and will adapt techniques to fit a person's goals, preferences and what they bring to sessions. He checks in about progress and changes the plan when needed.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by removing travel time or allowing sessions during a lunch break. It also lets people continue therapy while living in different places; international clients are accepted. Because the original biography describes online practice, please confirm the exact session formats offered before booking to ensure they suit your needs.
