About Leyla
Leyla Corbett offers a calm, attentive space for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, loss or difficult relationships. She meets clients with plain speech and steady presence, aiming to help them feel heard and to find practical ways forward. Leyla works in English and Turkish and draws on four years of clinical experience as a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom.
She uses a person-centred stance that puts the client's experience first.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on listening, naming what is hard, and deciding on small, manageable steps. Leyla also uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at patterns in close relationships and how emotion shapes behaviour. Existential ideas inform her work when people face big questions about meaning, loss or identity.
She helps clients sit with difficult feelings and consider how they want to live despite uncertainty. That can be useful for grief, chronic illness, or feelings of emptiness. Leyla is comfortable discussing sensitive topics such as trauma, intimacy, BDSM and alternative sex culture, body image, and family of origin issues.
She also supports people coping with caregiver stress, cancer, chronic pain and other long-term health challenges. Work in sessions tends to be straightforward and down to earth. Leyla aims to build a trusting relationship, help clients understand their patterns, and try new ways of relating and coping.
Practical actions and honest conversation are central to how she works.

Approaches Leyla lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotion and attachment patterns in close relationships. Online sessions can help people notice interaction patterns, practise new responses and bring clearer emotional language into their relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and Leyla works collaboratively to decide what fits best. She will help clients set goals, try methods and adjust the plan as needed so therapy matches personal needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering real flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face connection and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins or when writing helps clarification. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, care duties or travel and allow continuity when in different locations.
