About Natalie
Natalie Leslie works from a person-centred approach that puts the person at the heart of therapy. She aims to create a calm, accepting space where people can talk through their feelings and better understand themselves. Natalie presents herself in a warm and straightforward way, inviting clients to take small steps towards change.
She has three years of experience and holds BACP registration, which appears as BACP on her credentials. Her practice commonly addresses anxiety and depression, grief and loss, and the strain of major life changes.
Background and approach
People also come to her for help with stress, sleep problems, anger, and self-esteem concerns. Natalie uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside Emotionally-Focused Therapy. In practice she listens carefully, reflects back what she hears, and helps people name and make sense of strong emotions.
This practical focus aims to reduce overwhelm and restore more manageable day-to-day coping. She also supports clients with relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, career questions, and issues related to illness, bereavement, and end-of-life matters. Additional areas she addresses include codependency, communication problems, fertility and midlife challenges.
Sessions follow a collaborative rhythm with attention to the immediate problem and underlying feelings. Natalie encourages clients to set small, achievable goals and to build on personal strengths. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How Natalie works online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on recognising and organising emotions. The therapist helps people name painful feelings and make sense of patterns in their reactions. This can be useful for managing overwhelming anxiety, grief, or emotional numbness.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether client-centred work, an emotion-focused route, or a blend will be used as therapy progresses.
Confirm the session formats before booking to know what is available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow appointments during a lunch break or evening. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need shorter check-ins by phone. Ask about the practical arrangements when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be planned to fit everyday life.
