Lee Freeman is a UK-based counsellor with five years of clinical experience. He focuses on trauma, relationships and emotional overwhelm, and helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, addiction and low self-esteem. Lee offers care online for people who prefer remote sessions and for those living outside the UK as well.

Lee keeps sessions simple and down-to-earth. He aims to build a steady, non-judgemental space where people can start from wherever they are.

Background and approach

Conversations move at the client's pace and focus on practical next steps as well as understanding past hurts. His work blends client-centred ways of listening with cognitive behavioural techniques and trauma-focused strategies. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are used to help people manage stress and build small, achievable changes.

The emphasis is on clear tools that can be used between sessions. Common goals include feeling more emotionally steady, gaining clearer boundaries, and improving how someone copes with difficult relationships or life changes. Lee also supports people struggling with body image, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness, fatherhood issues and problems with impulsivity or control.

Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a time that fits their schedule.

How Lee's approaches work online

Lee uses client-centred therapy to create a listening space where the person sets the pace and priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and guides the work around what matters most to them.

He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, stress and some relationship patterns by building practical skills for managing difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Lee treats it as a collaborative decision. He will discuss different ways of working, try approaches that feel sensible, and adjust the plan based on the person's goals and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow more visual connection, phone sessions can be useful when less bandwidth is available, live chat provides a written conversation in the moment, and messaging lets people check in or work through short tasks between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and day-to-day commitments.
