Leanne Orrick, BACP

Leanne Orrick helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship strains. She also supports those dealing with grief, addictions, trauma, sleep problems and career or parenting worries. Her approach suits people who want practical steps as well as a listening ear.

Leanne works in a warm, non-judgemental way. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to offer a calm space where clients can be honest and feel heard. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to agree focused actions and small measurable steps when that feels helpful.

Sessions are conversational and straightforward. Leanne aims to understand the immediate problems and the patterns that keep them repeating. She will help set simple goals and try out new ways of coping between sessions.

With 11 years of experience and BACP accreditation, Leanne brings steady experience to her work in the United Kingdom. She explains ideas clearly and avoids clinical jargon to keep things practical and usable.

People often come to her feeling stuck, overwhelmed or exhausted. Leanne will help piece together what is working, what is not, and what can change next. Her style balances gentle listening with concrete steps so progress can happen in a way that feels manageable.

Approaches that suit online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on offering a supportive, non-judgemental space where the client leads the conversation and the counsellor listens and reflects. It helps people who need to be heard, to make sense of feelings and to rebuild confidence.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses practical steps and short-term goals to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and specific worries where small experiments and action plans can make a clear difference.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, preferences and goals and then agree a way forward together. That means sessions can shift between listening-focused support and active problem-solving as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility and makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker check-in and text-based messaging suits shorter, ongoing contact. These options help people keep momentum and access support from wherever they are in the United Kingdom.
