About Bogdana
Bogdana Leete is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, sleeping problems and anger. Sessions are offered in English, Russian and Ukrainian and she provides online and telephone counselling to fit around other commitments.
Bogdana focuses on what each person brings to the room and listens to what matters most to them. She takes an active role in sessions, sharing practical self-help tools and techniques that match a person’s goals. The first meeting is used to clarify what someone wants from therapy and to agree how to work together going forward.
Her approach draws on several methods. She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change thinking patterns that fuel anxiety and low mood. Person-centred work helps people feel heard while psychodynamic ideas can be brought in to look at longer-standing patterns and relationships. Mindfulness practices and solution-focused steps are also used for managing distress and building coping skills.
Bogdana often helps people who struggle with panic, low self-esteem, grief, trauma responses and difficulties with intimacy or parenting roles. She discusses coping strategies for sleep problems and offers ways to manage overwhelm and irritability that can lead to angry reactions.
Practical matters such as session frequency and fees are covered in the first session and recorded in a working agreement. International clients can be seen, and prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling their initial meeting.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Bogdana uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic and low mood because it focuses on practical steps and small experiments to change thinking and behaviour.She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy to make time for the person’s priorities and to listen closely to what matters. This approach supports clearer understanding of feelings and helps set the agenda for change. Mindfulness practices are used to develop calmer awareness and reduce reactivity in moments of stress or anger.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and decide together which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process continues as therapy progresses and aims to be responsive rather than fixed.
The original biography lists online counselling and telephone counselling as the delivery methods she uses. Confirm the specific formats and session length before booking. Online and phone sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy sits more easily alongside everyday life.
