About Lea
Lea Kendall is a counsellor who uses a mix of approaches to help people manage anxiety and stress. She holds NCPS and has 12 years of experience offering online support from the United Kingdom. Lea creates a calm and practical space where people can talk about what's hard and try small, workable steps forward.
She helps with anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, sleeping struggles and coping with life changes. Lea also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Her practice includes work on ADHD, parenting strain, career strain and money worries. Lea draws mainly on client-centred ways of working, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. Sessions are conversational and focused on what the person wants to change.
Techniques are chosen together and kept simple so they can be tried between sessions. Her background includes longer-term counselling and shorter coaching-style work. She blends emotionally-focused ideas and existential questions when those approaches match a person's goals.
That mix aims to help people reconnect with their values and build day-to-day coping skills. People who choose Lea typically want practical tools and space to understand their feelings. She uses gentle challenge and reflective listening to help people notice patterns and try new responses.
The overall aim is clearer thinking, steadier moods and better ways to manage daily stressors.
How Lea’s approaches work online
Lea commonly uses client-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness work in online sessions. Client-centred therapy means the conversation follows the person’s priorities, with the therapist reflecting and helping them feel heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thoughts and behaviours, offering practical steps to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and improve focus.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Lea will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they try methods for a few sessions and adjust the plan if needed so the work fits the person’s life and aims.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and have longer discussion work. Phone sessions can fit into a short break and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, ongoing reflection or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caring duties or travel, while still using the same therapeutic approaches.
