About Leanne
Leanne Kemp is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people work through what is keeping them awake, worried or overwhelmed. She keeps the room warm and open, and helps clients set the pace. Leanne holds BACP accreditation, which the biography lists as BACP, and brings 13 years of experience to her practice.
Leanne focuses on everyday struggles as well as complex issues. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and sleep problems. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, relationship strain, parenting challenges and work-related stress.
Her work often includes people living with neurodivergent conditions such as autism and ADHD, and she aims to adapt sessions to suit different needs. She also addresses long-term health and care concerns, chronic pain and the strain of caregiving where those affect mood and daily life.
In sessions Leanne listens without judgement. She does not give orders or tell people what to do. Instead she uses client-centred and solution-focused ways of working to help clients find practical next steps and clearer thinking about their situation.
Leanne has a background as a counselling psychotherapist and psychologist and has worked as a specialist mental health mentor. Her experience includes helping people deal with bereavement, attachment and abandonment concerns, and the aftermath of significant childhood events. She aims to help clients find a way forward and build better routines for rest and sleep where those are an issue.
How Leanne's approaches fit with online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The counsellor listens without judging and follows the client's lead to help them clarify what matters. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to talk through sleep problems, grief or stress.Solution-Focused Therapy looks at what a person wants to achieve and the small steps that can move them there. It is practical and future-orientated, which can help with routines around rest, managing anxiety or coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leanne will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together they will decide which way of working feels most helpful. That collaboration shapes what happens in sessions as priorities change.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions are more convenient. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the same client-centred and solution-focused tools to remote sessions, helping people work on sleep habits, anxiety reduction and day-to-day coping without promising a specific outcome.
