About me
Hi, I'm Leanne.
I offer counselling and psychotherapy for individuals and couples in Mapperley and Nottingham in person and online. I'm here to listen, understand what's important to you and support you in finding a way forward.
Life can be hard sometimes. You might be dealing with a relationship breakdown, loss, anxiety, low mood or a difficult period in your life. Other times, things may look fine on the surface, but you find yourself stuck in familiar patterns, struggling in relationships, doubting yourself or wondering why the same difficulties keep showing up.
Therapy gives you the time and space to stop for a moment, talk things through and get to know yourself a little better. It can help you make sense of what's happening now, understand patterns that may have been with you for years and decide how you would like things to be.
Individual Counselling in Nottingham and Online
People come to therapy for many different reasons. Some are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or struggling with low self-esteem. Others are dealing with grief, trauma, ADHD, family difficulties or major life changes.
Not everyone comes with a clear problem to solve. Sometimes people simply want to understand themselves better, build healthier relationships, feel more confident in who they are or make sense of patterns that no longer work for them.
Whatever brings you here, therapy offers a space where you can speak openly, without judgement, and be met with warmth, curiosity and understanding.
Couples Counselling in Nottingham
Most couples don't come to counselling because they don't care about each other. More often, they find themselves stuck in the same arguments, feeling unheard, disconnected or unsure how to move forward together.
Couples counselling offers a space to slow things down, explore what's happening and look at the patterns that keep getting in the way. It's not about blame or deciding who's right or wrong. It's about understanding what's really going on between you.
I hold a Level 7 Diploma in Couples Counselling and have experience supporting couples facing a wide range of relationship challenges, including communication difficulties, trust issues, parenting pressures and major life changes.
Support for a Range of Issues
I regularly work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, bereavement, ADHD, relationship difficulties and low self-esteem. I also support clients with emotional abuse, loneliness, OCD, anger, family issues and questions around neurodiversity.
You don't need to have it all figured out before reaching out. If you're wondering whether therapy might help, I'd be happy to hear from you.
Based in Mapperley, Nottingham in the NG3 area, I welcome clients from across Nottingham including nearby areas such as Arnold (NG5), Carlton, and Gedling (NG4). I also work across the UK, via online sessions.

Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Staffordshire University, awarded through four years of clinical training at the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute. I also hold a Level 7 Diploma in Couples Humanistic Integrative Therapy.
I’m a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and a member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society accredited register (MNCPS Acc.). I follow the professional and ethical standards set out by these organisations.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
