02 · In Leslie's own words

What Leslie says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with four years of experience counseling clients in-person and via telehealth. I enjoy conducting individual sessions and groups.

I'm passionate about helping people who struggle with depression, anger, addiction, and grief. I also have experience helping with ADHD, anxiety, infidelity, and men's issues.

My therapy style incorporates evidence-based practices from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-compassion. No matter what troubles us, it is important to nurture a positive relationship with ourselves.

If you're ready to get started on your journey to healing and self-improvement, I encourage you to contact me. Remember, it is a great sign of strength to ask for help.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Leslie practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Leslie's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

  1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

    BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Leslie at this point.

  2. Naming Leslie specifically

    BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Leslie is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Leslie.

  3. If the caseload is full

    You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

  4. The first conversation

    A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

  5. If the fit is wrong

    Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Leslie's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Leslie. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
