Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Leanne commonly integrates client-centred work, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) in her practice. Client-centred therapy focuses on offering empathetic listening and understanding so clients can explore their own values and strengths and feel supported in making personal changes. CBT helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT encourages acceptance of difficult feelings while clarifying what matters most, supporting committed action toward meaningful goals.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative - Leanne works together with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and then adapts methods accordingly so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access consistent support without travel, allowing flexible scheduling around work, family, or other commitments. These options help people maintain continuity of care, try different communication styles, and receive therapy in a way that suits their daily life while working with registered professionals and therapists trained to offer remote support.
