About Lesley

Lesley Nance is a counsellor offering support for stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. She also helps people cope with life changes and family-related strains. Lesley aims to create a warm, structured space where people can begin to feel steadier and more confident in day-to-day life.

Lesley uses a blend of approaches to suit each person. She listens first, then works collaboratively to identify repeating patterns and small, practical steps that ease pressure. Sessions include grounding and emotion-regulation techniques to help manage overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.

For people affected by past trauma or persistent stuck responses, Lesley offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often shortened to EMDR, as one option to process distressing memories. She also draws on mindfulness practices and solution-focused work to build clearer thinking and concrete coping strategies.

Lesley’s profile lists NCPS as a credential. NCPS is shown in the biography and is used here as supplied. She practises in the United Kingdom and has nine years of experience supporting people through change and emotional challenges.

The pace of therapy is tailored to each person. Lesley combines listening, gentle challenge and practical tools to help people reconnect with resilience and move toward sustainable change.

Approaches that translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and supporting people to find their own solutions; it helps when someone needs space to talk through stress, relationships or confidence issues. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used for processing distressing memories and reducing the intensity of stuck emotional reactions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve concentration and calm.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Lesley will help explore which methods feel most useful given a person’s goals, preferences and what they want to change. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as progress is made.

The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work from quieter surroundings or choose not to use video if that suits them better.
