About Bogdana
Bogdana Leete is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, sleep problems, relationship strain and grief. She also supports people dealing with stress, trauma, parenting pressures and codependency concerns.
Bogdana offers counselling by phone and online. She takes an active role in sessions and shares practical self-help tools. The first session focuses on why someone is looking for therapy and what they hope to achieve, along with questions to decide if working together will feel comfortable.
Her approach is flexible rather than fixed. She says there is no single method that fits everyone, so she adjusts techniques to suit the person and their circumstances. That can mean talking through feelings, trying small behavioural experiments, or practising grounding and breathing to manage panic.
She often helps people untangle why they feel low in energy or stuck making decisions, and how to reconnect with friends and family. For those who struggle with self-criticism, she works on building more realistic self-view and on ways to face difficult challenges without becoming overwhelmed.
When someone is coping with loss or deep distress, Bogdana helps them understand the emotions involved and finds safer ways to relieve intense pain. She also supports people adapting after big life changes such as migration or separation. Her style aims to be collaborative, practical and focused on immediate steps that can relieve pressure.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The counsellor follows what matters to the client and aims to build clearer self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small experiments to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with panic, sleep and anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and notice difficult feelings without acting on them.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs and preferences, and decide together which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and may change as progress is made.
The biography states that sessions are offered online and by telephone. Please confirm the exact session options and scheduling before booking. Online or phone sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, avoid travel, or have a shorter check-in when time is limited. Therapists can use practical exercises, breathing techniques and homework between sessions so the work extends into everyday life.
