About
Leo Lyon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to supporting individuals of all ages through a collaborative process that helps identify and build on personal strengths and talents. He is especially focused on helping people develop new life narratives that reflect perseverance and resilience while navigating challenges such as depression, self-esteem concerns, career stress, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
His work is grounded in a trauma-informed, strength-based perspective and draws from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In practice, this means helping clients develop practical skills for managing intense emotions and stress, exploring the stories they tell about themselves and their experiences, and taking values-based steps toward the life they want to lead.
Leo earned a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Nevada Las Vegas and a master's degree in social work from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Due to paneling restrictions, he is out of network with all United Health and Optum policies.

Evidence-Based Tools, Delivered Online
Leo Lyon integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients build skills and create meaningful change. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) focuses on practical strategies for handling intense emotions, improving relationships, and increasing day-to-day stability, which can be especially helpful when stress, depression, or life transitions feel overwhelming.Narrative Therapy invites clients to step back from problem-saturated stories and explore alternative perspectives that better reflect strengths, values, and resilience. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in clarifying what matters most and taking workable steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up along the way.
Because everyone arrives with different goals, preferences, and circumstances, finding the right approach is part of the process. Leo works collaboratively with clients to identify what they want to focus on and which strategies feel most useful, adjusting the work as needs evolve over time.
Online therapy can make it easier to stay engaged in care while balancing work, family, or changing schedules. With options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can choose a format that fits their routine and communication style while still receiving consistent support.
