Lee-Anne Marshall, BACP

Lee-Anne Marshall is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom who draws on person-focused and emotion-oriented approaches to help people facing midlife concerns. She holds BACP registration, and she brings five years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and difficult life transitions. Lee-Anne aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can talk about what matters to them.

Her way of working is flexible and tailored. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs, whether the focus is on relationships, grief, trauma, or career changes. Lee-Anne uses client-centred listening alongside emotionally-focused and acceptance-based ideas to help people notice patterns, make choices, and build new ways of coping.

Practical issues such as sleep, eating, and managing anger are addressed alongside deeper themes like attachment, abandonment and identity. She also supports people dealing with addictions, chronic health challenges, and caregiver strain. The approach combines reflection with straightforward strategies to reduce everyday distress.

Lee-Anne has a background in responding to trauma and family conflict, and she works with people navigating parenting and blended-family challenges. She also offers support around sexual intimacy, self-esteem and career pressures that often emerge in midlife.

Finding a better balance and clearer direction is a collaborative process. To begin, the client and Lee-Anne agree goals and a plan that suit the person’s pace and life circumstances. She encourages small steps and practical changes alongside emotional processing.

How her approaches shape online support

Lee-Anne often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it helps people commit to actions that match their values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that began in early relationships and how they influence current connection and trust. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and make sense of strong emotions, so they can change how they respond in close relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Lee-Anne works collaboratively to find what fits each person’s goals, preferences and day-to-day life. She will suggest approaches, try them in session, and adjust based on what helps the client make steady progress.

For practical online considerations, please confirm the session formats available before booking as the profile does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments. It can allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time and make it simpler to attend from different locations when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt ACT, attachment-focused work and EFT to help with relationship strain, midlife changes, grief and ongoing stress in an online setting.
