About Leigh

Leigh Ann Drew is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 10 years of professional experience. She helps people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and related concerns like self-esteem and coping with life changes.

She draws on approaches that focus on relationships and practical strategies. In session she listens without judgment and works with clients to identify patterns that cause pain. She helps people name what matters and tries small steps that can reduce daily stress.

Leigh Ann often uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current reactions. She also uses client-centered methods to ensure sessions reflect each person’s priorities and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used when people want tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Her work includes supporting people dealing with career strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and life transitions. She also addresses adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver stress, aging and hospice-related issues, and family of origin problems.

Sessions aim to be practical and focused. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, collaborative planning, and exercises to practice between meetings. To begin, follow the site’s matching steps to schedule a first appointment.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and connections. Online sessions can use attachment ideas to identify repetitive interaction styles and to practice new ways of relating to others.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's agenda and pace. In remote sessions this means the therapist follows what matters most to the person and adapts conversation and homework to fit their daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides concrete tools for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT in online meetings can include step-by-step skill practice, thought records, and short between-session exercises that fit into a busy week.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to test methods and adjust based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration continues as progress or priorities change.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since this profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make regular check-ins easier to schedule, allow shorter focused meetings for quick topics, and reduce travel time so therapy fits into work and family routines.
