Leanne Kemp, BACP

Leanne Kemp offers a warm, client-centred way of working that puts each person’s needs first. She welcomes straightforward conversations and creates space to talk about what is worrying you. Leanne does not judge or tell people what to do; she helps them find their own way forward.

Leanne has 13 years of experience as a counsellor and psychologist in the United Kingdom. She has worked as a specialist mental health mentor and supported people through depression, anxiety, bereavement, grief and relationship strain. She also has experience with trauma, abuse, bullying and significant childhood events.

She has supported people who are neurodivergent, including those with autism, ADHD and dyspraxia, and works with practical everyday struggles such as sleeping problems, parenting stress and work-related pressure. Her practice also covers issues like self-esteem, career concerns, compassion fatigue and long-term health conditions.

Leanne uses a client-centred approach alongside solution-focused techniques. That means sessions are shaped around the person in front of her while also looking for small, practical steps to move forward. She views therapy as a collaborative process where clients set the pace and priorities.

Leanne is a BACP member, which is listed as BACP in her credentials. To begin, people are invited to use the site start flow and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first appointment.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre. The counsellor listens closely, follows the client’s agenda and helps them make sense of what matters most. This approach can help with feelings of anxiety, low mood, self-esteem and relationship worries.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical, achievable steps and what is already working. Sessions often focus on small goals, coping strategies and clear next steps, which can feel useful when people want fast, practical change for stress, parenting strain or work pressures.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and decide together which methods suit the person’s needs, goals and preferences. It is a collaborative process where the client sets the pace.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow sessions during a lunch break or between commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed and avoid being on camera if a call is preferred. Registered or accredited professionals use these kinds of approaches to help people make steady progress without requiring a particular in-person arrangement.
