About Leanne
Leanne Bartrip offers a person-centred and practical approach to therapy. She uses a mix of talking therapies to help people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood and life changes. Leanne writes plainly and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and manageable from the first contact.
She has ten years of experience working with a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns. That work has included helping people cope with trauma and abuse, grief, self‑esteem issues, addictions, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar.
How Leanne works
She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career decisions, sleep and eating problems, and challenges linked to neurodevelopmental differences. Leanne practises in a pluralistic way. That means she draws on several therapeutic approaches and chooses what fits each person’s needs.
Her main approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client‑Centred Therapy, and she also uses attachment and emotion-focused ideas when helpful. Sessions focus on what someone wants to change and the small steps that move them toward that goal. Conversations are collaborative and rooted in practical strategies alongside reflective work about feelings and relationships.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, works in the United Kingdom, and offers sessions in English. Leanne accepts international clients and provides online appointments via several formats to suit different routines and preferences.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and to take actions that reflect their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties. Emotionally‑Focused Therapy (EFT) attends to emotional responses and patterns in close relationships and can help with attachment and intimacy‑related issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. That collaborative process guides which methods are tried and adapted over time to fit each person’s situation.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging. Video sessions allow face‑to‑face conversation and exercises, phone calls can be easier when lower bandwidth is needed, live chat suits shorter check‑ins or notes between sessions, and messaging supports regular reflective contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress and practical steps.
