    About Leanette

    Leanette Henagan is a licensed clinical social worker with 19 years of experience. She uses Motivational Interviewing and other conversational methods to help people find motivation and make real changes.

    Leanette views each person as the expert on their own life. She listens for strengths and builds on what is already working. Sessions aim to clarify goals, reduce overwhelming emotions, and create small steps that fit daily life.

    Her approach mixes Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. That means she listens without judgment and also helps people test new thoughts and behaviors. She adds mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to keep work practical and grounded.

    Leanette has supported people through pregnancy and postpartum concerns, caregiving strain, workplace stress, body image and women’s issues. She also helps with financial stress, midlife questions, and finding life purpose. She names common obstacles clearly and helps map manageable next steps.

  2. Using practical approaches for change online

    Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings and find their own reasons to change. It focuses on gentle questions and reflections to build motivation and commitment to small steps. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, follows the client’s lead, and helps them clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It offers straightforward tools to test unhelpful thinking and try new actions that can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to see which methods fit their goals, needs, and everyday life. That collaborative process can be adjusted as progress is made. For online work, confirm the session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins during breaks. They also let people choose settings that reduce distractions or remove the need to be on camera when that is helpful. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches so the work stays focused and practical, even when done remotely.
