Getting to know LeAnne Pleasant

Hi there, I'm LeAnne! Hello! My name is LeAnne Pleasant, LCSW. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University Long Beach. As a seasoned therapist, I am passionate about assisting each of my clients to fully occupy their lives in the healthy and rewarding manner they desire. The choice to begin psychotherapy is not always an easy one, and I strive to provide an environment where you will feel comfortable to begin the remarkable work of therapy. My approach I provide compassionate deep listening, support, and validation while also helping clients gain a fresh perspective and education about human behavior, including their own. Tailored to each individual, I combine the best of Western and Eastern Psychology to help clients achieve their particular goals. The new tools, skills, self-knowledge, and strengths developed in therapy can then be practiced to maximize progress. My focus My typical client is curious and open to experimenting with changes and new ideas to improve their mental, relational, and emotional health. I am particularly experienced in helping clients with Depression, Anxiety, Grief, Stress, Addictions, and Life Stage Challenges, which generally include the quest for clarity and meaning. My communication style My style is warm and authentic, providing the accepting environment necessary to build trust. Over the years, I have learned that while respect, acknowledgment, and validation are appropriate and appreciated, they are not enough. Clients want and deserve direct feedback and clarity about their particular concerns. They also want tools and strategies to address whatever challenges they are facing, and I do my best to provide both. I also like to offer education and insight into each client's unique concerns and experiences to empower self-understanding and acceptance.
