Lee-Anna Devine, BACP

Lee-Anna Devine helps people dealing with LGBT concerns, family tensions, trauma and abuse, grief and ADHD. She greets each person with straightforward kindness and a calm presence. Her approach is warm and practical, aimed at helping people feel heard and less alone.

Lee-Anna is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation. She has four years of professional experience supporting a range of issues. She also identifies as neurodiverse and draws on that lived perspective when working with attention and autistic spectrum challenges.

In sessions she focuses on understanding relationships and attachment patterns. She also uses client-centred ways of working that place the person’s priorities at the centre. Occasional psychodynamic ideas are used to look at past experiences that repeat in the present.

Clients can expect a supportive space to talk through painful memories, loss, feelings of isolation or struggles with identity. She helps people break down difficult problems into manageable steps and make choices that feel right for them.

Practical matters such as communication difficulties, impulsivity, shame, chronic illness and personality concerns are also explored. Lee-Anna works to make therapy understandable and relevant rather than full of jargon. She supports people to find clearer ways to relate to themselves and others.

Attachment and Client-Centred Ways Online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people who struggle with closeness, abandonment fears or repeating unhealthy dynamics to notice those patterns and try different ways of relating.

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and pace. The counsellor listens deeply, reflects what they hear, and supports people to find their own solutions and build self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what fits best with a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and adapt methods as therapy unfolds in collaboration with the client.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever is convenient. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when video is not needed. Live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep continuity even when routines change.
