About Leslie
Leslie Quigley is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in California with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults and older adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Leslie also addresses related concerns such as attachment and communication problems, codependency, and body image.
Prior to sessions she focuses on meeting people where they are and building a working connection. She listens and helps people learn practical coping skills for panic, difficult emotions, and life changes. Sessions aim to give concrete tools rather than abstract advice.
Her background includes work across a range of mental health challenges, and she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and daily functioning. She attends to cultural, racial, spiritual, and sexual identity factors when they are relevant to the person’s experience.
Leslie emphasizes straightforward skill-building for things like managing anxiety, processing traumatic memories, and improving communication in relationships. She supports people working through grief and the practical effects of major life transitions.
The approach in sessions is collaborative and goal-focused. People can expect clear conversation about symptoms, immediate coping strategies, and steps to address longer-term patterns. If someone wants to start, they complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the practice’s online process.
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are central to Leslie’s practice. One common approach focuses on skill building for anxiety and panic. That involves teaching breathing and grounding exercises, testing anxious predictions in small steps, and building routines that reduce daily stress. Another approach emphasizes processing traumatic or painful memories in a paced way. This involves talking through experiences, learning coping tools to manage strong reactions, and developing safer ways to respond to triggers over time. Finding the right method is collaborative. Leslie will work with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan as sessions progress. Confirm the available online formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific session types. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow quicker check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats can also make shorter or phone-style check-ins simpler and less dependent on high bandwidth. Ask about the current session options when you sign up so you can pick what works best for your schedule and comfort.Areas of expertise
