About LeShunn
LeShunn McLeod is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, substance concerns, and major life changes. She practices from Alabama and brings ten years of clinical experience to each session. LeShunn writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings.
She works with adults facing relationship strain, grief, parenting stress, and challenges tied to identity and mood. Her background includes work in residential and outpatient settings, along with individual and group therapy.
Background and approach
She draws on approaches that emphasize choice and action, helping people identify what matters and take steps toward it. Sessions aim to break down problems into doable changes and build skills for everyday life. LeShunn commonly uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.
She also incorporates acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and commit to actions that fit those values. Dialectical behavior therapy skills and motivational interviewing inform how she teaches emotion regulation and supports readiness to change. People meet her for help with trauma, addiction, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, self-esteem, and family-of-origin issues.
She offers both in-person and online options, including video, phone, chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are practical, collaborative, and focused on immediate next steps. Reaching out can feel hard, and LeShunn aims to make the process straightforward.
She guides people through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling, then works with them to set realistic goals. Her approach is down-to-earth and goal-focused to help people move forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
LeShunn often blends cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot patterns of thinking that feed anxiety or anger and then try different behaviors to see what changes. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small committed steps toward those values, even when feelings are difficult.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust as progress is made, keeping the plan practical and action-focused.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people use visual cues for skill teaching and role play. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging can support brief check-ins, homework review, or ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life.
