About Leanne
Leanne Orrick is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and sleeping problems. She also helps with depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, ADHD and parenting strain. Leanne works in a warm, non-judgemental way and aims to help people feel heard and understood.
She uses a person-centred approach, which means she listens without directing or judging. That gives space for clients to talk, cry, laugh or sit in silence while they make sense of things. Leanne also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on practical steps and short-term plans for specific problems when that is helpful.
Leanne has 11 years of experience in counselling and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. She runs a practice based in the United Kingdom and offers online sessions as part of her work. Sessions are described as honest and often emotional, and she aims to help people build small, measurable steps toward change.
In sessions she will work collaboratively to map out what is and is not working in someone’s life. That can include goals, action plans and straightforward exercises aimed at making everyday life more doable. The emphasis is on practical change alongside emotional understanding.
Her approach is flexible and will be tailored to what each person needs. Leanne invites people to begin by sharing what feels hardest, and then she helps them piece together a way forward that fits their life and aims.
How Leanne uses talking therapies online
Leanne uses person-centred counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work online. Person-centred counselling focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people can talk through what feels hard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small practical steps and action plans to reduce symptoms and build coping skills.She also draws on mindfulness approaches to help people notice unhelpful patterns and learn simple ways to slow down and manage stress. The choice of approach is a working decision made together with the client, and Leanne will discuss which methods might suit someone’s needs and goals during early sessions.
If you are considering online sessions, check the session formats available before booking. The practical benefits of online work can include fitting therapy into a busy day, avoiding travel time, and using shorter or longer appointments to suit a person’s schedule. Leanne aims to help each person find a way of working that fits their life and preferences, and she will agree the most useful approach with the client as therapy begins.
