Who we are

Tend Counselling is an organisation that sprouted from a dream, a lot of doubt but overall an ambition to make a difference. After struggling for a long time with my own mental health, access to therapy truly saved me and I’m sure my wonderful colleague Chloe would say the same. So we want to be that safe haven for others too, here’s a little about us!

Hello! I’m Leanne, a Psychodynamically trained counsellor based in Buxton. I believe true healing begins when we allow ourselves to verbalise and truly feel our emotions. So much of modern society works to keep us distracted and out of touch with ourselves and those around us. My approach is designed to help you connect with the overlooked parts of yourself - past and present, without judgment and at your own pace. With warmth and empathy, I have created a space for you to show up, just as you are.

If you’re feeling disconnected due to depression, overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling with late-diagnosed ADHD/ Autism, or sexual trauma, or need couples counselling with your partner, my sessions are adapted to your unique needs.

It can sometimes feel like everyone was given a ‘How-To’ manual at birth, and others just didn’t get one, but I believe everyone has the capacity to heal, and grow, and ultimately thrive with the right help. I’m here to help you untangle confusion, vent frustration, and find practical ways to process all that life throws your way.

Hello, I’m Chloe, a qualified counsellor with a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling Practice and currently studying for my BSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace.

My approach is integrative, drawing primarily from person-centred and psychodynamic theories. This means I tailor our work together to suit your unique needs—whether that’s looking at past experiences that may still impact you today, or simply offering a compassionate presence as you navigate life’s challenges.

I have particular experience in supporting clients with anxiety, depression, neurodivergence (including ADHD and autism), birth trauma, and relationship issues. I understand that seeking support can feel daunting, especially if you're used to managing things on your own or if you don’t yet have experience of therapy. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you to find greater clarity, resilience, and self-understanding.

If you’d like to know more about how I work or whether we’d be a good fit, feel free to get in touch, I’d be happy to hear from you.
