Background and approach
That mix of classroom and counseling work shaped a calm, steady style that is comfortable for people of different ages. In sessions she focuses on clear goals and steps you can try between meetings. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person.
Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Leslie also uses mindfulness exercises to manage stress and motivational interviewing to support change. Solution-focused strategies help keep sessions action-oriented and time efficient when that helps a client reach a goal.
She works with issues such as communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, life purpose, panic attacks, self-love, social anxiety, and workplace stress. Leslie speaks English and accepts international clients. Her practice is based in Texas and she will discuss treatment goals and plans with each person at the start.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Leslie commonly combines client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy means she listens closely and follows what matters most to the person, helping shape sessions around their goals and concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic.She may also bring in mindfulness practices to help with stress and grounding during difficult moments. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approaches feel like the best fit; finding the right method is a team effort based on needs, goals, and preferences.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation similar to in-person visits. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send messages between sessions or use shorter check-ins that fit into a busy day. These formats make therapy more flexible and can help people keep consistent momentum toward their goals.
