About Bogdana
Bogdana Leete is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She supports adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, low self-esteem and relationship concerns, including family and parenting issues and grief.
Bogdana uses a person-centred approach that keeps the conversation focused on what matters to the client. Sessions are collaborative and practical. She shares self-help tools and techniques to match the client’s goals and everyday life.
She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness practices are introduced to reduce anxious activation and support better sleep. Psychodynamic ideas may be used to look at recurring patterns that affect family and close relationships.
Her approach is flexible. Bogdana asks questions in the first session to agree how often to meet, what to aim for, and what techniques will be used. Fees and the working agreement are discussed at that stage so expectations are clear.
She offers counselling by telephone and online, aiming to fit sessions around existing commitments. People may expect direct discussion of symptoms, coping strategies to use between sessions, and practical steps to rebuild confidence and daily routines.
Bogdana speaks English, Russian and Ukrainian. She accepts international clients and encourages prospective clients to ask about any aspect of her experience or qualifications before booking.
How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
Bogdana commonly uses client-centred work that keeps the focus on the person’s concerns and goals. This approach emphasises listening, reflection and collaborative planning to help people make practical changes in daily life. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and to develop concrete coping skills for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Mindfulness techniques are offered to reduce stress levels and improve sleep through simple attention and breathing practices.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and agree together what to try first, adjusting methods as progress is reviewed. This collaborative process helps match techniques to the client’s needs, goals and preferences rather than prescribing a single way of working.
The biography states that sessions are offered online and by telephone, so confirm the exact session options before booking. Online and telephone work can make it easier to fit counselling around parenting, work and other commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to provide the same talking therapy techniques you would get in person, while adapting exercises so they suit a remote session.
