About Leslie
Leslie Ramos is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with seven years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career pressures, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). In sessions she listens and helps name difficult emotions and patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life. Conversations are practical and focused on what a person wants to change.
Leslie has worked in both community and private settings. That background means she is used to short-term problem solving and longer conversations about deeper issues. She has experience supporting people after physical trauma and emotional abuse and helping with obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.
Sessions combine talking, skill practice, and planning steps to try between meetings. She uses clear language and collaborative goal-setting to see what helps most. Clients can expect a mix of approaches based on the issues they bring and their personal preferences.
Leslie offers services in English and Spanish. Her professional credential is LMHC in New York and Florida. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps name and work with strong emotions and recurring interaction patterns. It is often used when people want to understand why they react a certain way and to shift those patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and building steps toward a valued life while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leslie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean leaning more on EFT for emotional patterns, using CBT for symptom relief, or adding ACT strategies for motivation and values-based change.
The therapist's profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also lets people use tools and exercises between sessions and practice skills in everyday life. Licensed professionals adapt sessions to what clients need and to how they prefer to engage.
