Leny Kuriakose, BACP

Leny Kuriakose offers compassionate, person-centred counselling that supports people working through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She frames counselling as a collaborative journey of self-exploration and with empathy helps clients make sense of patterns, relationships, and the practical obstacles that can feel overwhelming. As an integrative counsellor, she adapts methods and techniques to suit each person rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model, drawing on a range of evidence-based approaches to meet individual needs.

Leny has developed experience working with organisations that specialise in anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, and trauma recovery, which has informed her ability to support people facing a broad spectrum of challenges. She also offers focused support for areas such as codependency, domestic violence, guilt and shame, multicultural concerns, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, panic, post-traumatic stress, sexual assault recovery, and social anxiety.

Leny is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which reflects a commitment to recognised ethical standards and to keeping the client central to each session. She provides therapy in English from the United Kingdom and aims to create a non-judgemental, supportive space where people can begin to find a way forward.

Integrative and Trauma-Informed Care Delivered Online

Leny works from an integrative perspective, combining different evidence-based therapeutic techniques to match each person’s needs. This means she draws on a variety of approaches in a flexible way to help with issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and obsessive or panic symptoms, choosing strategies that best fit the client’s situation.

She also brings trauma-informed understanding to work with survivors of abuse and people experiencing post-traumatic stress, offering gentle, paced support designed to reduce overwhelm and build coping resources. These approaches focus on safety, stabilization, and gradually processing difficult experiences in ways that the client can manage.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Leny collaborates with clients to identify what techniques and pace feel most helpful. Together they consider goals, preferences, and responses to therapy to tailor a plan that evolves over time.

Online therapy with Leny is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals and to keep therapy consistent even when life is busy or travel is difficult.
