Online sessions and therapeutic focus
Leslie offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Online work is organized around regular contact and collaborative planning so that goals and methods match each person’s needs. She integrates short-term steps with attention to longer-term patterns to support steady progress.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to help people clarify what matters to them and to practice committed actions that align with those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and test patterns of thinking and behavior, and to develop practical strategies for managing symptoms and daily challenges.
Trauma-Focused Therapy is included when past events are central to current difficulties; this work attends to safety, pacing, and stabilization while addressing traumatic material. Prospective clients who prefer a collaborative, skills-oriented approach combined with exploration of meaning may find this blend suited to their goals.
