LeeAnn Van Vreede

LeeAnn Van Vreede is a licensed professional counselor with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions. She works with individuals facing depression, addiction concerns, relationship tension, and career stress. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at giving practical tools and steady support during hard times.

LeeAnn centers sessions on emotional healing and skill building. She helps people untangle guilt, shame, and low self-esteem while strengthening coping strategies. People come for help with mood disorders, seasonal shifts, and parenting stress, and she focuses on realistic steps they can use between sessions.

Her approach blends talk therapy with goal-focused methods. She draws from client-centered work to make space for each person’s experience. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.

Mindfulness and solution-focused methods help clients notice patterns and identify small changes that matter. Motivational interviewing supports people making changes around addiction, routines, or self-care. Sessions aim to be collaborative, practical, and respectful of each person’s pace.

LeeAnn practices in Wisconsin as an LPC and brings two decades of direct clinical work to her practice. She prefers clear, doable plans that fit everyday life. If someone wants a steady, empathetic clinician who focuses on both healing and practical change, she offers that combination.

How LeeAnn's Methods Translate to Online Care

LeeAnn integrates client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral techniques in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to a person's experience and responding with empathy so they feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. LeeAnn will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust strategies based on what helps. This is a collaborative process driven by the client's preferences and progress.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can make it simpler to keep consistent meetings and to use exercises between sessions. Session format options are not specified here, so confirm the current session options before booking. The focus remains on helping clients use skills from CBT and client-centered care to manage anger, stress, and life changes while making therapy fit day-to-day life.
