About Lesley

Counsellor Lesley Nance is a member of NCPS with nine years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes and family concerns. Sessions are delivered in English and she accepts international clients from the United Kingdom.

Lesley uses a mix of practical talking and experiential methods. She helps people spot repeating patterns and try small changes that make daily life easier. She offers EMDR for trauma-related issues alongside counselling approaches such as client-centred work, mindfulness and solution-focused techniques.

Her approach is steady and paced to the individual. Lesley aims to balance reflection with practical tools for emotional regulation and improved communication. She may introduce exercises for breathing, grounding and mindful awareness, and she can work on clearer ways to set boundaries and manage stress.

People contact her for specific problems like abandonment fears, attachment issues, eating and body-image concerns, codependency and problems around divorce or blended families. She also supports those dealing with ageing and caregiver stress and those needing help after traumatic events.

Lesley trained in a range of methods and blends them according to what someone needs in session. The first meetings are used to agree goals and decide which approaches might fit best. Fees vary by location and sessions run using a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Lesley works with therapeutic approaches online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person to find their own solutions. It involves reflective listening, open questions and working at a pace set by the client. It can help with low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship problems.

EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, is used for trauma-related or stuck emotional responses. It aims to help the nervous system process distressing memories so they cause less disturbance in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit the issue and the person. That choice is made together and can change as sessions progress.

The original profile does not specify which remote session formats are used. Please confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals often find ways to adapt exercises, EMDR protocols and mindfulness practices so they work well in remote sessions.
