We do this in a way that meets your goals in a self-paced format.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In the first session, I will get to know you and what you want to achieve while in counseling. You will also have the opportunity to ask me about my experiences and education to assure that we are the best fit. We will also work on identifying your challenges as well as your strengths.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My strengths lie in my ability to listen actively, providing a safe and empathetic space for you to express yourself without judgment. I am patient and understanding, which allows me to connect with you on a deeper level and help you navigate complex emotions and challenges. My strong communication skills enable me to offer clear, supportive guidance. My commitment to continuous learning helps me stay informed about best practices and therapeutic techniques to best support your needs. I am dedicated to fostering personal growth and empowering you to make positive, lasting changes in your life.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have worked with adults and children aged 5+ in the outpatient and home based therapy setting. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use disorders. I will work with you to identify and obtain new skills to better cope with the stressors of life, while also providing a listening ear for you to process everything.

While I have only had two sessions with LeAnn, I have felt like I have gotten something from both of them. She has been empathetic without passing judgement and asks meaningful questions.
