About Leita

Leita Sanger helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self esteem and depression. She works by listening, asking questions and supporting people to try different ways of coping. Leita is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has eight years of professional experience.

Leita uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address everyday problems and more complex emotional issues. She encourages practical steps clients can try between sessions, and she checks in on what is helping and what is not. Sessions focus on clear goals agreed with the client and on building manageable coping strategies.

Her work often covers issues linked to relationships and attachment, such as abandonment, codependency and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with life changes like divorce, bereavement, ageing and caregiving pressures. Where trauma, dissociation or abuse are part of the picture, she helps clients organise their thoughts and feelings at a pace they can manage.

Leita can also help people facing health-related stress such as cancer, and problems with control, commitment or feelings of emptiness. She pays attention to practical day-to-day skills as well as emotional processing. Her approach aims to make it easier to get through difficult moments and to notice small changes over time.

Clients are invited to set the pace. The initial session usually looks at immediate concerns and priorities and then plans next steps. International clients may be supported in English, and practical arrangements are confirmed before the first appointment.

Therapeutic approaches and how online work fits in

Leita uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional processing. One approach helps people learn coping strategies for stress and anxiety by breaking problems into small, manageable steps and practising new responses between sessions. Another approach focuses on processing grief and past harmful events in a paced way that reduces overwhelm and helps people make sense of their feelings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor and client will discuss needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. This collaborative method means the approach can change if something is not helping.

The biography does not specify which session formats are available, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, avoid travel, and use shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. They can also help people join sessions from another location if that is more practical for work or caregiving commitments.
