Leanne McCann, BACP, NCPS

Leanne McCann is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS with five years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as anger, stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and grief. Her practice also covers depression, addictions, self-esteem, intimacy concerns and parenting strain.

Leanne uses a person-centred foundation while bringing in practical methods from cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. She favours clear, short-term tools alongside deeper exploration when needed. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on small steps they can try between meetings.

Her style stays straightforward. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating, then helps clients test new responses. That might mean noticing physical signs of rising anger, trying grounding steps, or experimenting with different ways to speak up at work or at home.

Leanne also pays attention to attachment and relational patterns that shape how people handle conflict and closeness. For someone with long-standing hurt or abandonment worries, she works to understand how past relationships influence present reactions. For people facing grief, illness or caregiving stress, practical coping strategies are combined with talk work.

Sessions are conducted in English and Leanne accepts international clients. She offers clinical supervision to trainee and qualified therapists in addition to therapeutic work. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
