About Lea
Lea Kendall is an NCPS-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience. She works with adults and helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD and parenting difficulties. Lea also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, addiction, sleep problems and career or life changes.
Lea draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches. She blends talking therapy with mindfulness and coaching techniques to help people notice patterns and make practical changes. Sessions often focus on feelings that are hard to name and the interaction patterns that keep people stuck.
She pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues, body image and caregiver stress. Lea also works with those facing chronic pain, long-term illness or disability and supports people coping with guilt, shame or forgiveness. Practical skills for managing impulsivity, money worries and isolation are part of her work when helpful.
Lea describes her practice as collaborative and grounded. She encourages straightforward conversation about goals and what works for each person. Creative tools and nature-based ideas may appear in sessions when they suit the client’s aims.
Outside of counselling she spends time as a nature guide and home-educating parent. That background informs a practical, down-to-earth approach to everyday pressures and transitions.
How Lea uses EFT and related approaches in online work
Lea commonly draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name the emotions that drive difficult patterns in relationships and personal life. EFT focuses on the emotional responses that often underlie conflict and disconnection, and can be useful when someone wants to understand how feelings shape their reactions.She also uses client-centred therapy, which emphasises listening and reflecting to help a person find their own direction, and cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical steps to change them. These approaches suit a range of issues from anxiety and low mood to parenting stress and impulsivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lea will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, and will adapt methods in collaboration with the client. That way the focus is on what helps the person make steady changes.
