About Leesa
Leesa Starrett, LPC, focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed, angry, anxious, or disconnected find more calm and connection. She aims to create a straightforward, compassionate space where you can talk through what matters. Her style is down-to-earth and practical so you can start applying change right away.
Leesa uses a client-centered approach that follows each person’s pace and goals. She combines that with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness tools to help people notice patterns, try different responses, and manage strong feelings.
Background and approach
Sessions are meant to be collaborative and solution-focused so progress feels useful between visits. With ten years of experience working in Texas, Leesa has supported people facing stress, relationship strains, parenting challenges, anger, grief, and addiction concerns. She also works with issues like chronic illness, caregiver stress, codependency, and life purpose questions.
Her background includes work with people dealing with sleep problems, ADHD-related struggles, and career stress. Leesa prefers simple, practical steps alongside reflective work. That can mean practicing grounding and breathing skills, identifying thought patterns that fuel anger or anxiety, and building clear communication habits.
She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. Sessions focus on what you want to achieve and small, steady steps toward that goal. Leesa explains options, listens to your priorities, and helps shape a plan that fits your life circumstances and values.

How her approaches fit into online therapy
Leesa uses client-centered therapy to follow each person’s goals and pace. This approach emphasizes listening, reflecting your priorities, and building a plan that feels right for you. It is useful for people who need a supportive space to sort out feelings and priorities.She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and trying practical experiments to change them. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, anger, sleep issues, and habit changes. Mindfulness practices are used alongside these approaches to teach simple attention and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and improve focus.
Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match your goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls let you work face-to-face when that helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and messaging offer brief check-ins, quick skill coaching, or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule while trying different therapeutic methods.
