Leigh Partridge

Leigh Partridge is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings 26 years of experience to her practice. She offers a warm, interactive approach and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Leigh listens closely and works with each person to set clear, realistic goals that fit their life.

Her style blends client-centered work with mindfulness and cognitive behavioral ideas. Sessions tend to be practical and down-to-earth. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, build new habits, and practice ways to respond differently in tense moments.

Leigh has worked in public and private mental health clinics, schools, and hospitals. That background informs how she supports people through grief, trauma, and major life changes. She also addresses issues such as parenting strain, career worries, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and isolation or loneliness.

In therapy she focuses on collaboration. She and the client shape a plan that reflects the person’s needs and goals. Progress is tracked in small steps so changes feel manageable and relevant to daily life.

Leigh emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. She encourages people to take the first step toward a more balanced life and offers steady support while they work toward that goal.

How Leigh’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-centered therapy places the person’s goals at the center of sessions and emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration. This approach helps people feel heard and guides problem solving that fits their daily life.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that keep people stuck.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. It can help with stress, emotional overwhelm, and improving focus.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Leigh will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time so therapy can happen from more convenient locations. Because the original profile does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to deliver the client-centered listening, CBT exercises, and mindfulness practices described here, making it easier to apply new skills between appointments.
