Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

Leesa frequently draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes an empathic, supportive relationship and helps people explore their values and goals at their own pace. This approach is useful for individuals seeking a respectful, nonjudgmental space to process stress, life changes, or relational concerns.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that identifies unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches skills to shift them. CBT is often applied to anxiety, stress, sleep difficulties, and coping with daily challenges.

Mindfulness Therapy is another tool Leesa integrates, offering simple practices that help people become more present and responsive rather than reactive. Mindfulness can support emotional regulation, reduce rumination, and enhance overall well-being.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Leesa works collaboratively with each person and with licensed professionals as needed to determine which methods best match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts plans as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging add flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from home or other convenient locations, while still benefiting from skilled therapeutic guidance.
