About Lee
Counsellor Lee Hope is a BACP member with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with stress and anxiety, grief and loss, low self esteem and depression, and coping with life changes. He also has a focus on chronic pain, illness and disability and supporting people who are visually impaired.
Lee aims to offer straightforward, respectful conversations about what is troubling someone. Sessions centre on the client’s concerns and pace. He uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s own goals at the heart of the work.
In practice Lee listens for practical steps a person can try between sessions as well as themes that need longer discussion. He encourages small experiments and checks how they land for each person. This helps people see what makes a difference day to day.
Lee has worked in settings that gave him experience with health-related concerns such as chronic illness and disability. He brings that experience into sessions when relevant, while focusing on the issues the client names first.
Sessions are conducted in English and Lee accepts clients who are outside the UK. Before booking, people should confirm current session options and any practical details that matter to them. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first appointment.
Client-centred work and online counselling
Lee practises client-centred therapy, which places the person’s own views and goals at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens, reflects and follows what the client brings, helping them to make sense of feelings and decide next steps. This approach can help with anxiety, grief, low self esteem and adapting to life changes.Where health-related issues are part of the picture, such as chronic pain, the work stays focused on the person’s priorities. The therapist supports practical problem-solving alongside discussing how conditions affect mood and daily life. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as needed.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss approaches and agree what feels most useful based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative decision made early on and revisited over time.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, often use remote sessions to make ongoing work more practical while keeping focus on the client’s aims.
