Therapists in River Oaks, Houston, TX

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor. I entered this profession because I enjoy helping people. Anxiety, depression, and unstable mood are among the most common issues people bring to counseling with me. I like helping people learn about ALL scientifically validated approaches available to them. Many experience brighter and more stable mood, better sleep, and a greater sense of inner peace. I also like helping clients achieve their personal and career goals. I have over 20 years experience working with adults, families, and children. I genuinely enjoy assisting my clients, and I especially love working with kids.

You seem to be good at everything *except* your relationship. You know something is off in your relationship, but maybe you just can't quite put your finger on it. Or you know exactly what the problem is, but you're clueless on how to change it. You don't want to give up, walk away, throw in the towel. You want to fight for your marriage. Perhaps there's be infidelity, perhaps many times over. Maybe your partner hid major issues or events, like debts or friendships, and now you can't heal from the betrayal and trust your partner again. Or perhaps you are the one holding the secret, and the shame is keeping you imprisoned in fear.

Hello! I am Leanne and my passion for helping others has transformed into a mission to help people look within. I want to help you find answers to why you are feeling the way you feel and how you can make it better. People often come to me when they experiencing a transition or feeling stuck in life (not sure if they are in the right career or relationship or what their purpose is). I also work with couples who feel stuck or burnt out in their relationship.

My clients come into the office knowing one thing- they want a change. Often having an idea of exactly what it is that needs to change, and sometimes just knowing that 'it doesn't feel right'. I help my clients understand that each behavior is understood given the context that surrounds it. We will focus on the things that are not that obvious, perhaps it's the mere emotion that is motivating the behavior. Other times we might need to dig a little deeper. Together we work towards the same end goal: transformation.

I believe that healing and recovery take place in the context of relationships, both with ourselves and others. I seek to help my clients understand how past experiences have shaped their approach to their life, values, and interpersonal relationships. I enjoy helping clients increase their self-awareness as well as identify and understand ways in which their current behaviors and patterns hinder authentic living. I believe therapy happens at your own pace and that people can exist outside of diagnostic labels. There’s a place for humor, kindness, compassion, courage, and curiosity in the therapeutic process.

Your goals for therapy will be the focus of the counseling sessions to help you reach your destination.
