About Leslie
Leslie Ramos is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. She uses a somatic-informed perspective alongside talk therapy to help clients notice how their bodies hold stress and to find practical ways to feel steadier. Leslie speaks English and Spanish and practices in Florida as an LMHC.
She draws on several approaches to match each person's needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered work.
Background and approach
That means sessions can include learning new skills, noticing unhelpful thoughts, and paying attention to bodily signals that affect mood. Leslie has seven years of clinical experience in community and personal settings. She has worked with people facing addiction, bipolar challenges, grief, parenting strain, sleep problems, and life change.
She also supports those coping with post-traumatic stress and obsessive patterns. Her style is warm and interactive. She aims to create a respectful space without labels, and she tailors conversations and plans to each person's situation.
Therapy may combine skill-building, emotional processing, and body-focused techniques. To begin therapy clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
The practice blends somatic-informed work with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered listening. Somatic-informed work pays attention to bodily sensations and teaches ways to ease physical tension that comes with anxiety or trauma. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings and then take actions that match their values. Client-centered work focuses on building a respectful, understanding relationship and following the person's lead in sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful for their goals and comfort level. That choice can change over time as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. These options make it easier to meet from home, handle scheduling needs, and keep continuity when life gets hectic. Licensed professionals can adapt somatic and talk-based techniques to these formats so people can learn skills, process emotions, and practice new habits without traveling to an office.
