Background and approach

That work shaped how she responds to acute stress and reactions after difficult events. She previously worked as a case manager for children with disabilities, which informed her practical approach to problem solving. In sessions she uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the person’s goals and pace.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behavioral experiments. For people affected by past harm, she brings trauma-focused strategies to address patterns that keep problems repeating. Leslie welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and affirms different sexual orientations and cultural identities.

She emphasizes empathy and positive regard in every interaction and treats who a person is as part of the work. Her Louisiana LPC credential is held in Louisiana and she is working toward licensure in other states. She offers several online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.

Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Leslie’s Approaches Work Online

Leslie uses client-centered therapy to make sessions about each person's priorities. This means she listens closely, helps set goals the client cares about, and adjusts the pace to what feels manageable. That approach is useful for people who need support finding direction or feeling heard.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In CBT she helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping. This approach often helps with anxiety, stress, and changes in mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Leslie will work together with the client to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adapts techniques over time based on what is working and what is not.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people with busy or changing schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful. Phone sessions can work when lower bandwidth or less screen time is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins or a way to keep progress between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and daily life.
