Hello, and thank you for being here.
My name is Leanne Zbruk, and I’m a qualified counsellor with over six years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life challenges. I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life—many of whom are facing complex, often difficult situations. These experiences have shaped my deep commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and compassionate space for every person I work with.
I believe that genuine connection, empathy, and trust are at the core of effective counselling. In our work together, you can expect kindness, honesty, and respect as we explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. My role is to walk alongside you—supporting you in discovering your strengths, navigating challenges, and moving toward the life you want to live.
I am passionate about person-centred care and tailor my approach to meet your individual needs. I have a particular interest in working with people experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism, and addiction. My practice is grounded in evidence-based methods and informed by ongoing professional development and current research.
If you decide to work with me, know that you're not alone—I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
