About Leslie

Leslie Moya is a compassionate licensed clinical social worker who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make first steps into therapy feel manageable for someone who may be nervous or unsure. Leslie focuses on creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can say what they need to say.

She encourages people to name what they are feeling and to try small, practical changes that build confidence and relief over time.

Background and approach

Her approach blends client-centered care with practical tools. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to help shift unhelpful thinking and from mindfulness to build steady attention and reduce reactivity. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck and want to make a change but need a clearer plan.

Leslie has five years of professional experience and holds LCSW and CSW credentials. She works with adults facing life transitions, caregiving stress, chronic illness, grief, and relationship concerns. She also supports women navigating self-worth and multicultural challenges.

Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which lets people fit therapy into a busy life. Signing up begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling that follows the therapist's availability.

Approaches Leslie names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Practical approaches for online support

Leslie uses client-centered work to keep the focus on each person's goals and priorities. That means sessions begin by listening closely to what matters to the client and then planning steps together to address those concerns.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and change thought patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. CBT is often useful for everyday worries, stress, and depression because it pairs thinking exercises with action plans.

Mindfulness practices are part of her toolkit to help people notice stress responses and learn simple attention skills. These practices can reduce reactivity and improve coping during difficult moments.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Leslie will work with clients to try techniques and adjust them based on what feels most helpful. Goals, preferences, and progress guide how methods are combined and refined.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat provides a quicker back-and-forth, and messaging suits brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into work, caregiving, or other daily routines.
