About Leslie
Leslie Burley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, relationship strain, and substance concerns. She brings a calm, steady presence to sessions and works with people to set practical goals. Her background in education and school counseling shapes a straightforward style that many find easy to follow.
Leslie spent decades in education before focusing full time on counseling. She taught at elementary, secondary, and college levels and later worked as an elementary, middle school, and special education counselor. That mix of classroom and counseling work informs how she explains things and coaches people through change.
She uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. In practice she talks through immediate problems, helps clients try small behavior changes, and checks in on progress toward goals. Sessions often include simple skill building and short-term problem solving.
Leslie has 24 years of counseling experience and has also worked as an adjunct college instructor. She has used Prepare and Enrich in marriage counseling and says she discusses treatment plans and goals with clients at the start of care. She also notes being available to clients in crisis when consent for counseling is in place.
She conducts sessions in English and accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details so they match personal needs.
How Leslie blends approaches for online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and building a trusting relationship. It helps people feel heard and works well for anxiety, relationships, and feelings of isolation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It teaches practical exercises and small behavior changes that can reduce panic symptoms, worry, and low mood.
Mindfulness Therapy uses brief attention and breathing practices to help manage stress in the moment. It can make anxiety and panic attacks feel easier to notice and ride out without escalating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT exercises for a few weeks, adding mindfulness practices, or shifting toward solution-focused steps when useful.
