Online sessions and therapeutic approach
Leon offers remote sessions by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow conversations to proceed in ways that fit different schedules and communication preferences. Sessions are structured around clear goals while remaining responsive to what emerges in each meeting.
He draws on client-centered therapy to prioritize the client’s perspective and to create a collaborative atmosphere in which the client’s concerns lead the work. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to identify and work with patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress and anxiety. Solution-focused therapy supports short-term, goal-oriented planning and concrete steps clients can try between meetings.
Clients who value a balance of reflective listening and practical tools may find this combination a good fit. Remote formats are used for the same mix of approaches, with video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging available depending on the client’s preference.
