Leslie Ramos, LMHC

Leslie Ramos is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and trauma. Leslie speaks English and Spanish and aims to keep conversations warm and direct so people feel heard quickly.

Her style is interactive and respectful. She avoids labels and meets each person where they are. Sessions emphasize clear goals, steady support, and practical steps you can use between meetings.

Leslie draws on a mix of approaches tailored to the person in front of her. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients live by their values, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Emotionally-Focused ideas to address strong feelings in relationships. Dialectical behavior skills and client-centered listening are woven into sessions when helpful.

She has seven years of experience working in community and private settings with people dealing with OCD, ADHD, grief, sleeping struggles, parenting strain, and career stress. She has also supported people coping with abuse and post-traumatic stress.

Leslie aims to build practical tools alongside emotional understanding. She works collaboratively to set goals and adjust the plan as needs change. If someone is ready to make a change, she offers steady support and straightforward guidance.

How Leslie’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on actions and skills rather than getting stuck on thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change patterns. Emotionally-Focused ideas help people name and work through strong emotions to improve how they relate to themselves and others.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Leslie works with each person to figure out which methods feel useful. She adapts tools and goals based on the client’s needs, preferences, and what shows progress over time.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are set by the therapist and platform. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting someone meet from a place that suits their schedule. Many people find homework tools, worksheets, and real-time skills practice translate well to remote sessions, and Leslie uses these methods when they match a client's goals.
