About Beverly
Beverly Leonardi is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in New Mexico with three years of experience. She works with adults and young people on stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. Beverly also focuses on codependency and related relationship patterns that leave people putting others first at their own expense.
She keeps sessions structured and concrete. Beverly helps people identify the behaviors that keep them stuck and practices small changes in the room. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address panic, trauma-related symptoms, and substance-related problems.
In conversation she aims to help clients make sense of their family of origin and current relationships. That includes looking at communication problems, guilt and shame, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also supports work on obsessions, compulsions, and daily functioning when ADHD or anxiety get in the way.
Her approach mixes clear goal-setting with practical exercises. Clients learn skills for handling triggers, setting boundaries, and managing intense emotions. Beverly also assists people who want to rethink life purpose or repair how they relate to others after domestic violence or other traumatic experiences.
Sessions move at a steady pace with attention to what feels manageable. She encourages small, repeatable steps rather than big leaps. To start, prospective clients use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques include approaches that focus on changing thinking and behavior to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. One common method helps people learn specific skills for managing anxiety and panic - breathing and grounding tools, steps to face fears gradually, and ways to interrupt worry cycles. Another method addresses addictive behaviors by identifying patterns, developing relapse prevention plans, and practicing alternative coping strategies that fit everyday life.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Beverly will work with each person to identify goals, try a method for a few sessions, and adjust plans based on how things are going. The choice of tools depends on the client’s needs, preferences, and how they respond in early sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a work break, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for video or phone work, and sessions often focus on practical skills that transfer into daily routines.
