About Lee Freeman

Lee Freeman is a UK-based psychotherapist with five years of experience offering online support to adults dealing with trauma, PTSD, and complex relational difficulties. He works with people affected by childhood and sexual abuse, anxiety, depression, narcissistic or coercive relationships, grief, low self-esteem, and emotional overwhelm, providing a calm and steady presence as clients explore difficult experiences.

His style is warm, grounded, and collaborative, designed to create a nonjudgmental space where people can move at their own pace. Lee integrates trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy - a practical form of CBT that takes account of trauma - with relational approaches and emotional regulation strategies to help clients understand patterns, manage intense emotions, and build healthier connections.

Lee holds BACP, which signifies membership of a recognised professional association for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. He frames therapy not as a process of fixing someone but as a way to make sense of painful experiences, recover from them, and develop tools for living more fully in the present. Clients often report feeling more emotionally stable, clearer about their boundaries, and better able to manage difficult relationships.

Lee encourages people to begin wherever they are; he accepts international clients and offers flexible online sessions to meet individual needs and circumstances.

Combining trauma-informed approaches with flexible online care



Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the impact of traumatic experiences by helping people process memories and reduce their emotional intensity. It is often used when past events continue to disrupt daily life and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people recognise and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, offering practical strategies for managing anxiety, low mood, and emotional overwhelm. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the centre of the work - the therapist provides empathy and support while the client guides the pace and focus, which can be especially helpful for building trust after relational wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Lee works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone allow face-to-face connection from home, while live chat and text-based messaging provide options for people who prefer written communication or need more frequent, brief contact. These formats make it easier to arrange appointments around work, family, and life commitments and can help maintain continuity of care when circumstances change.
