About Leonard
Leonard Blake is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. He also supports those dealing with addictions, relationship strain, grief and a wide range of life challenges. Leonard works in English and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Leonard has five years of practice experience. He has worked with clients referred from national agencies as well as people seeking personal counselling. His listed credential is BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
Leonard starts from an existential viewpoint and uses a conversational, client-centred style. He pays attention to the person’s world and daily experience to help them spot unhelpful patterns. His approach aims to make difficult issues easier to name and manage in everyday life.
He draws on a range of approaches including attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioural techniques and emotionally focused work. That gives him options to match the work to what a person needs, whether that is practical coping skills or deeper emotional exploration. Sessions can take several forms including video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Fees vary by location and the practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person chooses the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to availability.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences and together they decide which methods to try. Sessions may mix practical strategies and emotional exploration so the plan fits the person’s needs.
Online sessions are offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation when eye contact matters. Phone sessions can work well when internet bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are handy for shorter check-ins, notes between sessions, or when messaging fits a busy schedule.
