About Leonor

Leonor Magana is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, family and intimacy-related concerns, and self-esteem. Leonor speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

She focuses on practical conversations about what is happening now. Leonor helps people name patterns and try different ways of relating and communicating. Sessions often look at attachment, shame, forgiveness, and how past hurts affect present relationships.

Leonor also supports people navigating sexual concerns and alternative relationship styles. Topics she commonly addresses include BDSM and kink, polyamory and non-monogamy, sexual function and desire, and process addictions such as compulsive pornography or gambling. She works with survivors of sexual assault and people dealing with sexual addiction.

Her style centers on clear, direct discussion and collaborative problem solving. Leonor talks through communication strategies, boundary-setting, and ways to rebuild trust after abandonment or betrayal. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions and measure progress.

Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, someone completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. Leonor aims to help people find clearer footing amid the challenges of young adulthood and beyond.

How Leonor uses evidence-based methods online

Leonor relies on straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address relationship, intimacy and anxiety concerns. One common approach is working with attachment concepts to identify patterns in how people relate, communicate needs, and respond to abandonment or fear. This helps when feelings of isolation, jealousy, or repeated conflict keep showing up.

Another frequent focus is skills-based work for communication and emotion regulation. That means practicing clearer ways to ask for what you need, set boundaries, and handle shame or guilt so interactions feel less reactive and more manageable. These methods are useful for relationship problems, social anxiety, and difficulties with sexual communication.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Leonor discusses different techniques with clients, checks what feels useful, and adapts plans based on goals and how someone responds. She helps people decide which strategies to try and makes changes as progress is tracked.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a student or work schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time so appointments are more practical. Ask about available formats when completing the matching questionnaire so sessions match your routine and needs.
