About Leanne
Leanne Orrick is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship struggles. She also helps with grief, self-esteem, addictions, ADHD and a wide range of life changes including adoption and foster care concerns. Leanne works in a warm, non-judgemental way so clients can speak freely about what matters to them.
Leanne uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding. Sessions are relaxed and respectful - clients may cry, laugh or sit in silence while they find their way through difficult feelings. The aim is to build trust and to help people feel genuinely heard and accepted.
She also offers Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small, practical steps to change them. That approach is helpful for anxiety, phobias and some trauma-related patterns, and is used alongside the person-centred work when it fits the client’s goals.
Mindfulness techniques are part of the mix too, often used to ease anxiety, improve sleep and reduce stress. Leanne uses simple exercises and short action plans so changes feel doable between sessions.
Leanne trained for five years to qualify as a counsellor and CBT practitioner and has 11 years of overall experience. She works from the United Kingdom and runs sessions online as well as from her practice. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions by using the Start Therapy button.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Leanne uses person-centred counselling to build a trusting relationship through careful listening and acceptance. This approach helps when someone needs space to name feelings, make sense of loss, or explore identity without pressure.She also applies Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to create short, practical steps and action plans. CBT targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and can be useful for anxiety, phobias and establishing new routines. Mindfulness therapy provides simple exercises to reduce tension, improve sleep and support day-to-day coping.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide whether a person-centred focus, CBT tasks, mindfulness exercises, or a combination suits their needs and goals.
