About Leanne
Leanne Glennon is a BACP counsellor who focuses on practical, evidence-based work with people under stress. She draws on approaches such as trauma-focused care and cognitive behavioural techniques. Sessions are delivered with a calm, relational manner aimed at helping parents and individuals manage anxiety, grief and the pressures of daily life.
She values the therapeutic relationship and starts by getting to know the person and their priorities. That helps shape clear, shared goals and the methods used in sessions.
Background and approach
Work can include talking therapies, creative exercises and emotion-focused tasks to suit different needs. Leanne offers trauma-informed and trauma-focused care for people who have experienced or witnessed upsetting events. She uses a three-phase model of trauma recovery - safety and stabilisation, remembrance and processing, and reconnection and integration - and returns to phases as needed rather than moving in a straight line.
Her experience includes supporting people after sexual abuse, domestic abuse and complex bereavement, and she has worked with self-harm issues. Her MSc research looked at therapists' experiences of working with self-harm, which informs her understanding of that area. Sessions aim to build on a person’s strengths and sense of control.
She encourages collaboration so the person shapes the pace and focus of the work. Therapy can be challenging at times, and Leanne offers steady support while people work towards more contented, manageable lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online therapy
Leanne commonly uses trauma-focused work and cognitive behavioural techniques in sessions. Trauma-focused work helps people who have experienced or witnessed specific traumatic events by guiding them through safety, remembrance and reconnection phases. Cognitive behavioural approaches look at patterns of thought and behaviour and help people try practical new ways of coping, useful for anxiety and stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods and adapt the plan as progress is made. Together they decide what feels most helpful and change direction if needed.
Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face connection when a longer conversation is needed. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can work for quick updates, reflective writing or when people prefer not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel commitments, and to continue support when in-person sessions are not possible.
