About Leslie
Leslie M. Brown is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida. She has 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, workplace and career concerns, and addiction-related issues. Leslie also supports people facing trauma, relationship and intimacy struggles, parenting challenges, and identity-related stress including LGBT concerns.
Her style is warm, optimistic, and often uses a touch of humor to ease difficult conversations. She treats people with respect and avoids stigmatizing labels. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
Leslie draws from a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioral techniques, humanistic client-centered care, and solution-focused work. She pays close attention to the therapeutic relationship and adapts strategies to whatever is most helpful for the person in front of her. That practical focus helps when tackling things like anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She has experience supporting people from marginalized communities and those affected by religious or spiritual harm. Leslie has worked with individuals dealing with post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury, chronic illness or pain, and the stresses of caregiving.
Leslie aims to work collaboratively and dynamically. She welcomes questions, listens first, and helps people map small steps toward clearer goals. If you want straightforward, compassionate support for money-related stress or other life challenges, she can help you talk through next steps.
How Leslie’s approaches fit with online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choosing actions that match your values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and stress that interferes with daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises, which is useful for anxiety, low mood, and work-related stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers on warmth, empathy, and listening so the person can find their own solutions; this approach is helpful when someone needs a supportive, nonjudgmental space to sort out feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Leslie will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process includes checking in about what is and isn’t working and shifting techniques as needed.
