About Leanne

Leanne Roughton is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, commonly shown as BACP, and has three years of professional experience. Leanne offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can say what they need to say and be listened to.

Leanne often supports people dealing with depression and family conflict. She also helps those facing life changes and workplace pressures. Sessions focus on talking through what matters most and finding steps that feel realistic to the individual.

Her work includes helping with grief, trauma and intimacy-related worries. She addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and body image concerns. Practical conversation and steady reflection are used to untangle recurring patterns.

Leanne pays attention to how shame, guilt and forgiveness affect everyday choices. She also works with people coping with narcissistic behaviours around them and with post-traumatic stress reactions. The aim is to improve day-to-day coping and restore a sense of control.

For those balancing career demands and compassion fatigue, she helps identify small changes that reduce strain. Parenting challenges and communication problems are explored in ways that fit family life. People are encouraged to set short-term goals and notice gradual shifts.

How evidence-based techniques can work online

Leanne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical conversation and reflection. One common approach she uses helps people notice unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour, then tries small, manageable changes to ease anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on relationships and attachment, helping people understand how past connections shape current interactions and intimacy concerns.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Leanne will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and she will adapt methods as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative process where the person and the therapist test what helps and revise plans when needed.

Online therapy can make it simpler to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel and allowing appointments around work or family time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, or sessions without video if that helps someone engage more comfortably. Since formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be arranged.
