Getting to know Andrew Leonard

Hi there, I'm Andrew! I am a licensed professional clinical counselor with a supervision designation in Ohio. I have nearly 30 years of experience in my field, including 10 years at Children's Services. I have a no-nonsense approach. When I see something in a client, I say something to that client. My approach I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as my default approach, along with other modalities that fit the needs of the client or situation. To me, CBT means that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all interconnected. You cannot affect one without affecting all. Out of those three things, one can only control behavior. My approach is to help clients utilize their behavior to help them learn to guide their thinking. No one can control their thoughts or feelings, but with guidance and effort, one can learn to guide their thinking into a healthier realm. My focus Currently, most of the clients I work with have anxiety and/or depression issues. I also provide couples counseling. I feel comfortable treating a wide range of issues. I've worked in community mental health and had to take whatever client walked through the door, so I have experience treating many maladies. My communication style I am very direct. Clients who don't want to hear how they contribute to their problems generally don't care for me. I am also very opinionated and tell clients what I think. I do my best to be tactful when telling someone something they might not want to hear, but I will still tell them. My journey to mental healthcare I started my career at Children's Services investigating child abuse and neglect. Working at CPS was challenging and rewarding. I learned a great deal about people. When people are under significant duress, the real person comes out. Witnessing so many people in their raw state has taught me a lot about human nature in general.
