About Leslie
Leslie Westbrook is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with seven years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, family conflicts, anger, self-esteem struggles, and focus concerns such as ADHD. Leslie speaks English and practices in New Jersey.
Leslie uses straightforward conversation to identify what is getting in the way of day-to-day functioning. She pays attention to patterns in mood, behavior, and relationships. Sessions often include thoughts-and-behavior work, mindfulness skills, and discussion of long-standing relational patterns.
Clients and therapists often work together to set concrete goals. Leslie breaks goals into small steps and tracks progress from week to week. She offers practical strategies for handling workplace stress, social anxiety, seasonal low mood, and moments of impulsivity.
When attention or concentration is a concern, Leslie helps people develop routines and strategies that fit their daily lives. For family-related stress she focuses on communication and boundary skills a person can use immediately. For anger and guilt she helps identify triggers and alternate responses.
Her approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and psychodynamic ideas about how past relationships shape present behavior. Leslie adapts what she uses based on what a person needs and how they prefer to work. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
How Leslie’s approaches translate to online work
Leslie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors; it can help with anxiety, workplace stress, and low mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve concentration; these tools are useful for anger, impulsivity, and seasonal low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the first few sessions. Leslie will discuss goals, daily routines, and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are common as progress is tracked.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, and family routines. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited or phone-only meetings when bandwidth is constrained. The focus is on practical access and making therapy fit into everyday life rather than on a single delivery method.
