About Leslee
Leslee Negus is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with seven years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, mood disorders including bipolar disorder and depression, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Leslee also works with people who want clearer direction around life purpose and workplace issues.
Leslee centers the work on the person's own knowledge of their life. She treats clients as the experts on their stories and helps map the strengths already available. Sessions are straightforward and practical. The aim is clearer thinking and more usable coping skills for daily life.
Her approach uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and stress-related problems. Conversations typically identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach concrete ways to manage strong emotions and low motivation. Leslee supports step-by-step changes rather than quick fixes.
She often helps people plan for common workplace stresses and transitions. This can include strategies for managing overwhelm, improving focus, and setting boundaries at work. For life changes, Leslee helps break big shifts into manageable steps so progress feels realistic.
People who contact her usually want practical tools, clearer goals, and steady support while they make changes. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking to make sure the format fits their needs.

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Many of the techniques Leslee uses are drawn from evidence-based therapeutic methods that teach practical skills. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms; this involves short experiments and skill practice between sessions. Another approach emphasizes mood stabilization and routine-building for people with bipolar disorder and mood dysregulation, using structured planning and coping strategies to manage mood shifts.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to the client's goals, day-to-day challenges, and personal preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful and what changes are needed.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals use online appointments to deliver the same skills-based work as in person, focusing on practical tools, planning, and regular progress checks.
