About Leanne
Leanne Banks is a counsellor who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, family conflict and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She aims to offer a calm space where people can speak openly and feel heard. Leanne speaks plainly and supports practical steps toward feeling more steady day to day.
Leanne has three years of professional experience and practises in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. These memberships reflect her commitment to ongoing professional standards and ethical practice.
Her work focuses on understanding attachment patterns and how early relationships shape current reactions. Leanne uses client-centred ways of working to follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas to help clients make meaning and notice recurring life themes.
In sessions she listens for what feels urgent and what has been repeating in someone’s life. Conversations often cover communication styles, boundaries, difficult family dynamics and coping after separation or loss. She also supports people dealing with body image, caregiving strain, dissociation and other complex reactions.
Leanne encourages small, achievable changes alongside listening and reflection. She asks questions, offers observations and helps people try new ways of managing stress and relationships.

How Leanne's approaches translate to online counselling
Leanne commonly draws on attachment-based work to help people notice patterns in relationships and how those patterns affect stress and communication. This approach is useful when people want to understand why certain reactions repeat in their work and home life.She also uses client-centred methods, which means she listens closely and follows what the client says is most important. That way the pace and focus are shaped by the person's needs rather than a rigid agenda.
Finding the right approach tends to be a collaborative process. Leanne will discuss different ways of working and help decide what fits best with someone’s goals and preferences. Together they check in and adjust the focus as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy workday and keeping continuity when life is unpredictable. Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm the exact options available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals aim to make sessions easy to attend and to match approach and timing to everyday life.
