Therapeutic approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. Lee-Anne encourages collaboration and tailors methods to each person’s goals and circumstances. She welcomes inquiries from English-speaking adults in Kentucky who want to explore change.

Approaches you can use online and in conversation

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what's important to them and take steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, low motivation, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change patterns that cause suffering. It is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person leads the pace and topics of work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lee-Anne treats approach selection as a collaboration and will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and what feels comfortable. She adapts techniques over time as priorities change.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know the exact formats she offers. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, skip travel time, and check in from quieter surroundings or a break at work. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed and makes ongoing skills practice easier between meetings. Licensed professionals can guide adjustments so the work suits daily life and real-world demands.
