Leslie McRae is a gay male therapist based in Florida with 30 years of clinical experience. He is a licensed clinical social worker in both Florida and New York and works with individuals on a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship issues, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and LGBT-related matters.
His approach is personable and interactive, designed to provide steady support while also offering gentle challenge when that helps clients gain new perspective and grow. He aims to help people better understand themselves and to teach practical tools that support a happier, more productive life.
Leslie offers weekday phone sessions between 11 am and 4 pm, which can be scheduled via the website calendar or by contacting him directly. He also provides asynchronous messaging between sessions and commits to responding within 24 hours, often sooner. While he does check messages on evenings and weekends, he does not offer evening or weekend appointments at this time.
Leslie welcomes inquiries from people seeking help with anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, career challenges, or the stresses of life transitions. He looks forward to hearing from prospective clients and supporting them as they work to feel and live better.
Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions for many individuals.
One of the primary benefits is flexibility - clients can choose the communication method that feels most comfortable, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
All therapists are licensed professionals, and if a different fit is desired it is possible to switch therapists. For many people dealing with everyday mental health concerns, online therapy provides a practical and effective way to access skilled professional support.
