About Lea

Lea Kendall works with adults on stress, anxiety, parenting, self-esteem, depression and life changes using an integrative approach she describes as collaborative and person-centred. She is registered with NCPS and has 12 years of professional experience in the UK.

Lea helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected. She uses talking therapy alongside coaching and mindfulness exercises to identify what gets in the way of day-to-day coping. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings as well as paying attention to emotions in the room.

Her practice covers a broad range of concerns including addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, sleeping problems, career questions and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she works on include attachment and abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, communication and control issues. Lea also offers support around divorce, guilt and shame, impulsivity and loneliness.

Lea lists several therapeutic approaches in her work. These include Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Existential Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. She mixes these methods to match what a person wants to focus on in sessions.

Sessions are offered in English and Lea accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, people are invited to use the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Lea’s approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own perspective, with the counsellor listening and reflecting so the client can make sense of their experience. It suits people wanting non-directive support to talk through feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviours. It often involves practical exercises you can do between sessions and can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional patterns in relationships and attachments, helping people notice and change how they respond to strong feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lea will discuss goals and preferences and decide together which methods to use. This collaborative process means the plan can change as needs shift over time.

Session arrangements are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm the exact formats available before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when time is limited, or removing the need to be on camera for some conversations. Registered or accredited professionals often use these options to make sessions more practical for people’s schedules.
