About

About Lee-Anna

Lee-Anna Devine is a counsellor who supports people facing LGBT concerns, family strain, trauma and abuse, grief, and ADHD. She writes simply and kindly, and aims to help people feel understood. Lee-Anna uses plain language and steady listening so people can start to talk about what matters to them.

She draws on four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and works with a range of life difficulties such as abandonment, attachment problems, chronic illness, and isolation.

Background and approach

She also has personal experience of neurodiversity and brings that perspective into sessions when it is helpful. Her approach is relational and exploratory. Conversations focus on patterns, personal history, and what feels hard right now.

Sessions are shaped around the client’s pace and priorities rather than a fixed agenda. Lee-Anna uses ideas from attachment-based, client-centred and psychodynamic ways of working. That means she pays attention to relationships and early life experiences, follows the client’s lead, and looks for repeating themes that affect everyday life.

She aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people can talk about difficult topics. Practical steps and clearer understanding often follow from gentle reflection and regular conversation. If you want to try therapy, she asks you to use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to arrange a session.

Online support

How these approaches shape online work

Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships affect present-day trust and closeness. It can help people understand why they react strongly in certain relationships and find calmer ways to connect.

Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the person explore their feelings and choices at their own pace.

Psychodynamic ideas focus on patterns that repeat over time. Talking through past experiences can reveal hidden themes that influence current behaviour and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lee-Anna will work collaboratively to decide which ways of working suit your needs and goals. This means checking in about what feels useful and adapting the sessions as you go.

Practical benefits of online therapy include making sessions easier to fit into a busy day and reducing travel time. Online work can allow for shorter check-ins or longer conversations depending on what you need. Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled.
