About Leanne
Leanne Glennon is a BACP counsellor with 17 years of experience. She focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship and works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and LGBT concerns. She aims to understand what matters to each person and to work alongside them to find practical ways forward.
Her way of working draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques including trauma-focused and cognitive approaches, plus creative and emotion-focused tools. Sessions begin by getting to know the person and the issues they want to address. Leanne emphasises collaboration so that people play an active role in shaping the work.
When trauma is involved she uses a three-phase model that starts with safety and stabilisation, moves into remembrance and trauma processing, and then into reconnection and integration. This helps people progress at a pace that suits them and acknowledges that recovery is not always linear.
Leanne has particular experience supporting people affected by sexual abuse, domestic abuse, complex bereavement and self-harm. Her MSc research examined therapists’ experiences of working with self-harm, which informs her practical approach to difficult material.
She values straightforward, non-judgemental support and believes clients are the experts in their own lives. Therapy can be challenging at times, and she aims to offer steady support so people can build on their own strengths and move towards a more contented life.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy
Leanne draws on trauma-focused and cognitive approaches alongside creative and emotion-focused techniques. Trauma-focused work helps people who have experienced specific traumatic events by using gradual phases - safety and stabilisation, remembrance and processing, then reconnection and integration. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying patterns of thinking and testing new ways of responding to reduce anxiety and stress.Finding the right approach is considered part of the therapeutic process. Leanne works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person best, taking into account their goals, history and what feels manageable. She adapts the pace and style as the work progresses.
