About Leanne
Leanne Banks offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or difficult family situations. She speaks plainly and encourages small, steady steps so worries feel more manageable. The first meeting focuses on understanding what matters most to the person and what they hope to change.
Leanne has three years of professional experience and is credentialed with BACP and NCPS. She draws on therapies that pay attention to how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to help people make sense of painful patterns and find ways to respond differently. Her style is open and client-centred. Conversations are led by each person’s needs and pace.
Leanne uses mindfulness practices to help calm the body and notice unhelpful thoughts without judgement. Leanne also uses ideas from existential and Jungian approaches to help people explore meaning, identity and recurring emotional themes. This can be useful when life changes feel confusing or when past pain keeps returning.
Typical concerns she supports include trauma and abuse, communication problems, attachment issues, divorce and separation, and caregiving stress. She also works with issues such as body image, eating-related problems and blended family challenges. People meet with Leanne online by video, phone, chat or messaging.
She helps clients set clear, realistic goals and reviews progress as therapy continues. The emphasis is on practical change, while acknowledging the emotions behind it.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful, set goals with the person, and adjust methods as progress is made. This collaborative way helps ensure the work fits each person’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write, want brief touchpoints, or need to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care while fitting sessions around everyday life.
