About Lesley

NCPS, 9 years of experience. Lesley Nance works with stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes and family concerns. She offers a blend of talking therapy and practical tools aimed at changing patterns that cause distress.

Lesley describes her work as integrating mind, body and spirit while using evidence-based methods. She helps people notice unhelpful patterns, practise emotional regulation skills and try new ways of responding to difficult situations. Sessions are paced to the individual and she uses a mix of conversational counselling and structured techniques.

For people who have experienced trauma or feel stuck with strong emotional reactions, Lesley provides Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a therapy option. EMDR is presented as an approach that can help the nervous system process memories that are difficult to shift through talk alone.

She also uses mindfulness practices and solution-focused techniques to help people manage symptoms and set achievable goals. Hypnotherapy is listed among her methods and is offered alongside other approaches when it fits the client's aims.

Lesley works in English and accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people are asked to use the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Lesley uses therapeutic approaches in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration so the person leads the pace and topics; this approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and find their own solutions. EMDR is offered for trauma-related and stuck emotional responses; it involves structured protocols intended to help the nervous system process difficult memories and reduce their immediate impact.

Lesley also uses mindfulness practices to build present-moment awareness and reduce rumination. These practices can help with anxiety, stress and low mood by teaching simple attention and breathing skills that are practised in sessions and between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lesley will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the client's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted as the work progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises such as mindfulness or solution-focused tasks for remote sessions and use EMDR protocols where appropriate and agreed with the client.
