More about Leanne
- Female
- LCSW
I am a therapist and Christian spiritual adviser licensed in Texas and Connecticut. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges, and just generally feeling "stuck" in life. I also helped many people who are not satisfied with their current relationship status.
My counseling style is warm, interactive and open. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I do not feel the need to focus on labels and instead would rather work with you to create the lifestyle you desire. My approach utilizes a variety of therapy modalities while incorporating prayer and meditation. It is goal and outcome oriented. I want you feeling better from our work together! You tell me what you want, and we work to get you there.
My favorite part of working with people is when they come to the place where they understand that their life can be even better than they imagined and they start to experience huge positive shifts in their life.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
