01About Leslie
Leslie Wood is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 13 years of experience. She helps people cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, and life changes. Her style is direct and collaborative, aimed at helping clients take practical steps toward feeling better.
Leslie has worked in community counseling centers, organizations focused on child abuse, and independent practice. That range of experience shaped her approach to trauma, sexual assault and abuse, and post-traumatic stress.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with addictions, bipolar concerns, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles. In sessions she blends client-centered listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work. That means she listens first, then helps set short-term goals and homework to try between meetings.
For trauma-related concerns she uses trauma-focused techniques to help process painful memories at a pace that fits each person. She pays attention to how family history, early memories, and social pressures shape someone's patterns. Conversations may include looking at those histories, practicing new ways to communicate, and testing small behavior changes.
Leslie often uses assignments, contracts, and concrete suggestions to keep progress moving. People who want straightforward guidance and clear next steps tend to do well with her style. She welcomes international clients and conducts sessions in English.
If someone wants an approach that mixes listening with hands-on tools, she offers a practical, compassionate path forward.

How Leslie’s Approaches Work Online
Leslie commonly combines client-centered therapy and trauma-focused therapy when working online. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship so clients can explore what matters to them; it works well for stress, self-esteem, parenting concerns, and relationship questions. Trauma-focused therapy helps people process painful memories and reactions in a paced way, which is useful for PTSD, sexual assault and abuse, and other trauma-related struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leslie will talk with each person about their goals, history, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on what helps most.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversations, while phone sessions can fit a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief coaching, progress notes between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different time zones.
