About Leanne
Leanne Alanson is a counsellor who supports people with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and depression. She works with those dealing with panic disorder and panic attacks and with people facing life changes like pregnancy or young adulthood. Sessions aim to help people feel understood and to find practical ways to manage difficult days.
Leanne offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through painful feelings. She tailors conversation and exercises to each person rather than using a single one-size-fits-all method. The focus is often on small, achievable steps that make daily life easier.
Her background includes three years of practice and registration with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. That registration is noted as part of her professional standing. She works in the United Kingdom and speaks English.
Leanne has experience supporting people with grief, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and those coping with abandonment and blended family issues. She also helps people facing social anxiety, control and communication problems, and questions about life purpose.
When panic attacks occur, Leanne focuses on grounding techniques, pacing conversations and straightforward strategies to reduce intensity. She aims to help people recognise patterns and build skills to manage symptoms between sessions.
People choose Leanne for a warm, steady presence and practical support. She encourages collaborative goal-setting so clients leave sessions with clear ideas to try before the next appointment.
Approaches that help with anxiety and panic
Leanne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with anxiety and panic. One common approach focuses on grounding and breathing strategies to reduce the intensity of panic attacks; this involves simple exercises to bring attention back to the body and slow physiological arousal. Another approach works on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with small experiments in daily life to reduce avoidance and build confidence.Finding the right method is part of the work together. Leanne collaborates with each person to test different techniques and decide which suit their needs, goals and preferences. She aims to adapt methods so they fit the client rather than asking the client to fit a fixed model.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, please confirm the current options before booking. The focus is on practical help you can use between sessions, and on making therapy work around your routine rather than the other way round.
