About Lesley
Lesley Nance, NCPS, offers calm, practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and major life changes. She supports those coping with relationship strain and family concerns, and can work with those affected by natural or human-caused disaster. She writes plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is anxious or unsure.
Lesley uses a blend of talking therapies and experiential methods. Sessions focus on spotting unhelpful patterns and trying small changes that make daily life easier. She combines gentle challenge with encouragement so people can find what works for them.
For people with trauma or stuck emotional responses, Lesley offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR. She also uses hypnotherapy, mindfulness techniques and solution-focused steps when these fit the person's goals. Client-Centred Therapy is a thread through her work, keeping the person's pace and priorities central.
Her style is holistic but down-to-earth, attending to thoughts, feelings and practical behaviour. Sessions aim to build emotion-regulation skills, shift perspective and strengthen resilience. Lesley describes progress as a process and works at a pace that suits each person.
Lesley has nine years of experience and is based in the United Kingdom. She works in English and accepts international clients. To begin, readers choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.
How Lesley’s approaches translate to online therapy
Lesley works with several approaches that people often find suitable for remote work. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, helping them find their own solutions and set the pace for sessions. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used for trauma or stuck emotional responses and involves guided attention and memory processing to reduce distress. Hypnotherapy draws on focused relaxation and suggestion to help change habits, manage stress and support emotional shifts.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy journey. Lesley collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and comfort level. She adapts techniques as the relationship develops, mixing talking, practical exercises and experiential methods as needed.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy day, avoiding travel time and choosing quieter moments for check-ins. Online work can make it easier to maintain continuity during life changes and to try techniques at home between sessions.
