Leita Sanger , BACP

Leita Sanger is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She supports people dealing with feelings of abandonment, attachment difficulties, relationship breakups and the emotional strain of caregiving or illness. Her practice also addresses issues such as codependency, control problems, dissociation and emptiness.

Leita keeps sessions straightforward and calm. She aims to create an open space where people can say what’s on their mind without fear of judgement. She encourages small, practical steps so progress feels achievable rather than overwhelming.

With eight years of experience, Leita draws on established therapeutic methods to guide conversations and coping strategies. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try alternative ways of thinking and acting. Conversations focus on what feels most important to the person in the room.

She works with adults facing life transitions, health‑related stress, bereavement and long‑standing worry. Sessions are intended to help people build confidence, manage difficult emotions and find clearer choices in everyday life.

Leita is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step connects people with her according to availability.

Approaches you might use in online sessions

Leita uses well‑established, evidence‑based techniques that are practical and interactive. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and practise alternative ways of thinking and behaving; this is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach focuses on processing past distress and learning skills to manage triggers and overwhelming emotions; this can help people working through trauma, abuse or strong reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed to fit the person’s pace and priorities.

Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check‑in is needed. Live chat and text‑based messaging can suit brief check‑ins, shorter reflections or times when typing feels easier than speaking. These options can make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel.
