Background and approach
She also supports people impacted by trauma, sexual assault, domestic violence and obsessive thoughts or compulsions. Leny has six years of practical experience and has worked with organisations that focus on anxiety, depression and trauma recovery. That background means she is used to talking about difficult memories and strong reactions in ways that aim to make them more manageable.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Leny is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and follows their ethical standards. People who choose this counselling tend to be looking for a collaborative relationship.
Leny will tailor conversations and techniques to fit personal goals and day-to-day realities. The aim is clearer thinking, steadier mood and better ways of coping with stressful situations.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Leny works integratively, drawing on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and choosing what fits each person. One common approach she uses focuses on understanding and managing anxiety by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them in everyday life. This helps reduce worry and panic over time by building more helpful thinking and coping habits.Another useful technique involves processing trauma and strong emotional reactions in small, steady steps. The aim is to help memories and reactions feel less overwhelming and to build practical strategies for dealing with triggers and flashbacks.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and adapt methods to match the client’s goals, values and daily life. This means plans change as progress is made, and treatments are chosen collaboratively rather than imposed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls let people have a fuller face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can suit quick check-ins, short reflections between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make counselling more flexible and easier to fit around work, childcare or travel.
