Leslie Ramos

Leslie Ramos is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anger, anxiety, and major life changes. She works in Florida and brings seven years of clinical experience in community and private settings. Leslie uses a warm, interactive style to help clients feel understood and heard.

She helps people facing depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, career uncertainty, and issues with attention and obsessive thoughts. She has supported people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse and those coping with grief or compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses sleep problems, addictions, self-esteem, and questions about life purpose.

Leslie draws from several approaches to shape treatment to each person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, emotionally-focused methods, and a client-centered stance. Conversations and tool-building are tailored to the needs someone brings to a session.

Her style is respectful and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer thinking, and actions that fit daily life. Leslie aims to support people as they try new ways of responding to stress and anger.

She offers services in English and Spanish and holds licensing as an LMHC in New York and Florida. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session based on the therapist's availability.

How these approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anger, stress, and life transitions by shifting attention to meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down distress into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and obsessive thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear communication; these skills often help people manage intense anger and strong reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick and adapt methods based on goals, preferences, and the concerns they bring. That discussion usually happens in early sessions and can change over time as needs evolve.

Confirm specific session formats before booking since the profile does not list them. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and use tools like guided exercises or worksheets between meetings. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, and phone calls can help when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Discuss practical options during the scheduling step to find what fits daily life and treatment goals.
