Online therapy with approaches tailored to your goals
Andrew Leonard draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can translate well to online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, respectful space where clients can clarify what they feel, what they need, and what matters most. This approach can be especially helpful when stress, relationship strain, or depression makes it hard to see a clear next step.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice unhelpful thought patterns and daily habits, then practice more effective ways of responding. It is often used for concerns like anxiety, mood challenges, and coping with life changes. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured method that helps some clients process difficult memories and reduce the intensity of old triggers, and it may be considered when trauma and abuse are part of the picture.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrew Leonard collaborates with clients to choose strategies that match their goals, pace, and preferences, adjusting over time as needs become clearer.
Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone, with additional options such as live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into a busy schedule and stay connected between sessions.
