About Leslie

Leslie Santure is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With six years of clinical experience, she draws on time spent on a crisis team addressing trauma, abuse, and instability to inform a calm, compassionate practice that emphasizes safety and practical coping skills.

Her approach blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-focused methods to address issues such as depression, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, bipolar-related concerns, and parenting or career stressors. Leslie also brings background as a case manager for children with disabilities, and she intentionally creates a relaxed, nonjudgmental environment where empathy and positive regard guide each interaction.

She works with clients from diverse racial, cultural, and sexual orientation backgrounds and aims to collaborate as a team to build insight and actionable strategies for daily life.

Approaches for Online Support and Healing

Leslie uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, collaborative atmosphere where the client's priorities lead the work; this approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and helping people feel understood as they explore goals and challenges.

She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build concrete coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Leslie works together with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the plan evolves as progress and obstacles emerge.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit consistent support into busy or changing schedules. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing guidance, skill practice, and emotional support without requiring travel, which can help maintain momentum between sessions and during life transitions.
