Her practice addresses a broad spectrum of concerns, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and various forms of childhood abuse such as sexual, physical, and emotional maltreatment. Leslie also works with relationship and parenting difficulties, life transitions, and supports clients who want to reconnect with what brings genuine joy to their lives.

She uses a variety of practical methods to foster insight and encourage action, including exploring family history and early memories, assigning focused homework, developing therapeutic agreements or contracts, offering suggestions, and processing emotions and thoughts together. Leslie approaches the work with a supportive attitude and a commitment to partnering with clients as they pursue greater wellbeing and satisfaction in their lives.
