About Leanne
Leanne McCann is an integrative therapist who supports people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and relationship challenges. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through overthinking, intimacy concerns, addictions and issues around identity. Leanne also works with parenting, sleep and eating difficulties, as well as career and life-change worries, and has additional focus on topics such as attachment and abandonment.
Her practice is person-centred at its core, which means she builds sessions around each person's needs and pace. She blends that core with cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance-based ideas to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. Leanne uses elements from dialectical behaviour work and attachment-informed thinking when these are useful.
Leanne has five years of experience and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and registration with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. She also offers clinical supervision to trainee and qualified therapists.
In sessions she focuses on practical steps and clearer self-understanding rather than jargon. Conversations tend to be straightforward and compassionate, aimed at small, manageable changes that build over time. She accepts international clients and works in English.
If someone is unsure where to start, Leanne encourages a first step of noticing what feels most pressing and making that the starting point. The approach is collaborative and paced to each person's goals.
How her approaches inform online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, overthinking and life transitions by shifting focus from avoidance to meaningful steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand how they connect and react in close relationships. This approach can be useful for intimacy issues, abandonment fears and communication difficulties.Finding the right fitting approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can be reviewed as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as avoiding travel, fitting a session into a lunch break or using a shorter check-in when time is limited. They can also allow for quieter conversations without needing to be in an unfamiliar building. Registered and accredited professionals often adapt ACT and attachment-informed techniques for remote work, using exercises, guided reflection and practical skills you can try between sessions.
