About Leslie

Leslie Quigley is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California with six years of clinical experience. She provides individual care for adults and people aged 50 plus, and describes her scope as including relationship-related concerns and difficult life transitions. Her focus areas include stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression, along with related issues such as codependency and attachment concerns.

Leslie uses a person-centered stance that emphasizes strengths. She pays attention to cultural, racial, sexual, and spiritual identities as part of understanding how problems show up. In sessions she helps people develop coping skills to handle painful emotions and make practical changes in daily life.

Her background includes work with a range of serious mental health challenges and life changes. That experience shapes how she plans treatment and sets goals with each person. She frames the process around building rapport and practical tools rather than labels or quick fixes.

Leslie prefers to work through current problems and past wounds at a steady pace. Sessions often include discussing patterns in relationships, practicing clearer communication, and trying small behavioral changes between meetings. She aims to help people notice unhelpful habits and try different ways of responding.

People who come to her often want realistic steps for handling anxiety, grief, or relationship strain. She asks practical questions, listens for patterns, and helps set achievable goals. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Evidence-based approaches and what online sessions involve

Leslie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what helps people manage symptoms and change patterns. One common approach is person-centered work, which centers conversations on the client’s experience and builds on their existing strengths to address stress and relationship patterns. Another frequent element is skills-based work that teaches coping strategies for anxiety, grief, and trauma reactions, such as breathing, grounding, and step-by-step behavior changes.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Leslie will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. She checks in regularly and adjusts plans so the work remains practical and relevant to your day-to-day life.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to keep therapy in a weekly routine, fit appointments around work or caregiving, and reduce travel time. Some formats allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, while others let you stay on camera for a longer, deeper session. Ask about the available session types when you complete the matching questionnaire so you can choose what fits your schedule and needs.
