About Angela

Angela Leoni is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She offers calm, straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain and other difficult life moments. Angela works with clients who are exploring identity, addiction, parenting pressures and changes to mood or sleep.

Her approach is warm and non-judgemental. Sessions are shaped around each person’s concerns and goals rather than a fixed script. Angela encourages people to lead the conversation so therapy follows what matters most to them.

She draws on client-centred listening to build trust and clarity. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used where helpful to identify unhelpful thoughts and discover practical ways to test new behaviours. Existential ideas help people find meaning and make choices when life feels uncertain.

Angela also uses relational work influenced by Imago approaches to look at patterns that affect closeness and communication. Mindfulness practices are offered for managing stress, sleep disruption and emotional regulation.

Her experience includes supporting people through trauma, abuse, bereavement, parenting strain, ADHD and long-term health challenges. Angela aims to provide straightforward guidance and steady support while people work through change at their own pace.

To begin, she asks people to describe what they want to focus on and then agrees a simple plan together. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs.

How key approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client drives the agenda; online work keeps that same emphasis by using active listening and questions to help people clarify what matters most. This approach can help with stress, relationship strain and identity questions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers clear steps to spot and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Online sessions can include short exercises, activity planning and thought records to work on mood, anxiety, sleep and coping with life changes.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning and choice when life feels unclear. In remote sessions this can become a conversational space to weigh options, surface values and make practical decisions about next steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide what methods to try, adjust plans based on how things go, and focus on goals that matter to the individual.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a working day, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a full session is not needed. It can also let people use audio-only sessions if bandwidth is limited or choose a quieter way to connect when talking feels easier than being on camera.
