About LeShunn
McLeod has worked in counseling since 2016 and brings ten years of experience across outpatient and residential settings. She has provided individual, family, and group work and has offered both in-office and online services. Her practice attends to a wide range of concerns, including grief, bipolar conditions, ADHD, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, and addiction-related struggles.
In sessions she often uses reality-based approaches that help clients take more control over daily choices and behavior. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and client-centered methods when they match what a person needs. That mix is used to teach coping skills, emotional regulation, and clearer communication.
Her goal is to work collaboratively to identify practical steps clients can try between sessions. She emphasizes small, manageable changes that add up over time. If someone wants to explore how therapy might help, she invites them to begin the process and see what fits.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
LeShunn McLeod draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful patterns and build a life that matters. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, anger, and depression. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts and values, then taking actions that move a person toward the life they want despite difficult feelings.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and situation. That conversation is aimed at tailoring practical steps and exercises that can be used between sessions.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, save travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Many people find remote work useful for practicing skills in the moment and keeping regular appointments. Licensed professionals can help set a plan that matches your needs and daily routine.
