Bogdana Leete, BACP

Bogdana Leete provides flexible, convenient counselling designed to fit around existing commitments, offering both online and telephone sessions to make support accessible from wherever a client is located.

She approaches each person as an individual, tailoring methods to match a client’s unique circumstances and needs rather than applying a single fixed model. Bogdana works collaboratively with clients, letting what matters to them guide the pace and focus of therapy. Talking in a non-judgemental space to build understanding and resilience is central to her practice.

Bogdana specialises in anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and confidence issues, relationship and family difficulties, work-related stress, sleep problems including insomnia, panic attacks, and self-injury. She also supports people facing loss and bereavement, adaptation after emigration, and a range of trauma-related concerns. In sessions she takes an active role, sharing practical self-help tools and techniques that align with each client’s goals.

Clients can expect an initial session that focuses on why they are seeking therapy and what they hope to achieve, with questions designed to assess fit and to determine the most appropriate form of support. If both client and therapist choose to continue, they will agree on how they will work together, session frequency and fees, all of which form part of a working contract. Bogdana holds BACP accreditation - membership of a professional counselling association in the United Kingdom - and works with adults, older adults, trainees and young people via online counselling and telephone counselling.

Practical Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Bogdana commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy, with mindfulness practices integrated where helpful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms such as anxiety, panic attacks, low mood, and sleep difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a collaborative, non-directive relationship where the client’s own goals and experiences guide the work, supporting self-understanding and confidence building. Mindfulness techniques help people develop present-moment awareness and stress reduction skills that can be useful for managing worry, emotional overwhelm, and sleep problems.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Bogdana will work together with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made to ensure the approach remains a good fit.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives - sessions by video call or phone, and options for live chat or text-based messaging provide flexibility in how and when people engage. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, accommodate different schedules, and access licensed professionals and therapists from locations that suit the client.
