About Leyla
Leyla Corbett is a warm counsellor who offers a calm, straightforward space for people in difficult moments. She welcomes conversations about stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and intimacy-related issues. Leyla works in English and Turkish and accepts international clients.
Leyla uses a practical, person-focused way of working. Sessions start with what matters most to the client and move at a pace that feels manageable. She pays attention to cultural background and how it shapes values and choices.
Background and approach
Her practice draws on Existential Therapy to help people face big life questions and find personal meaning. She also uses Client-Centred Therapy to ensure people feel heard, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to work with relationship and emotional patterns. Leyla has four years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She describes her style as empathetic and direct, avoiding forced positivity while supporting honest exploration. In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps alongside deeper reflection. That might mean learning ways to manage anxiety, talking through grief, or exploring how past family experiences affect present choices.
People can expect a steady, collaborative approach aimed at building resilience. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions. Leyla uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and sessions are arranged according to her availability.

Online support
How Leyla's approaches work online
Existential Therapy helps people face difficult life choices and questions about meaning. Online sessions using this approach focus on what matters most to the individual and on making choices that fit their values. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre and prioritises being truly heard; online conversations follow the client's lead and build trust through steady listening and reflection. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns of emotion and connection that affect relationships and intimacy, and can be used to identify and change those patterns in one-to-one work.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Leyla will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide which methods to use. That conversation continues over the first few sessions to make sure the work feels useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls suit fuller conversations and working face to face when travel is difficult. Phone sessions can be easier when video isn't possible or when someone needs a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for ongoing support and for people who prefer typing over speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and different time zones.
