About Leslie

Leslie Westbrook is a licensed clinical social worker in New Jersey with seven years of experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy for people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, anger, low self-esteem, and attention concerns like ADHD. Leslie uses straightforward conversation to understand what feels hard now.

She treats each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions are shaped around what the person needs and what fits their life. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior.

Background and approach

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people stay present and reduce reactivity, and Psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. Leslie helps people with related struggles such as attachment issues, social anxiety, workplace stress, mood changes, and feelings of isolation or shame.

She supports those dealing with body image, impulsivity, and the ups and downs of seasonal affective disorder. Conversations focus on practical steps and small changes that add up. She will tailor the plan to each person’s goals and pace.

The first step is often just sharing what’s most stressful and making a simple plan forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Leslie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change small habits that make life harder. CBT often helps with anxiety, low mood, and workplace or school problems where behavior and thinking patterns get in the way.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that lower reactivity and bring more calm into daily moments. This approach can help with anger, stress, and social anxiety by building steady awareness.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Leslie works together with each person to figure out which methods match their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans over time based on what is actually helpful in sessions.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow quick check-ins, brief coaching, or written reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility while keeping the focus on practical steps and progress.
