About Leslie

Leslie Flowers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 30 years of experience. He works with young adults and other adults on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, addictions, ADHD, relationship concerns, and life changes. He also addresses issues like career strain, parenting pressures, and problems tied to trauma and abuse.

Leslie favors straightforward conversation and practical tools. Sessions focus on identifying what matters to the client and taking small steps toward better functioning. He uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered approaches to guide the work.

In practice he listens without judgment and helps people name the thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. That can mean noticing patterns, practicing different responses, or trying brief behavioral experiments between sessions. He aims for clear goals and measurable progress rather than vague talk.

Leslie brings long experience across many settings, so he can pull from several approaches when a problem needs a different angle. He commonly addresses sleep and eating disruptions, bipolar and mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and caregiver stress. He also supports people dealing with isolation, life purpose questions, and gender dysphoria.

Sessions are conducted in English and Leslie accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and costs. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online therapy options button.

How Leslie’s approaches work for online sessions

Leslie often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck. CBT targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns with practical exercises and experiments to change how a person responds to stress and mood problems.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Leslie will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and try methods that fit the person’s needs. If one approach does not suit a client's situation, he will adjust the plan and mix techniques from different models to keep the work useful.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions fit a busy schedule because they save travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and can be easier to attend between classes or shifts. Online work can support practice of real-life skills between meetings and make follow-up brief and practical while still using ACT and CBT techniques.
