About Leslie
LCSW licensed in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience, Leslie Raneri helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, career concerns, depression, and life changes. She also focuses on caregiver stress, isolation and loneliness, mood disorders, life purpose, and women's issues. Leslie works from a strengths-based perspective and treats each person as the expert on their own life.
Leslie uses practical conversation and collaborative problem solving. She helps people name what is most troubling and then tries out straightforward ways to reduce distress and increase day-to-day functioning. Sessions emphasize clear goals, coping strategies, and skills that people can use between meetings.
Her style centers on listening, giving feedback, and identifying personal strengths. She encourages small steps that fit into daily life. When grief, career shifts, or health changes create overwhelm, Leslie breaks concerns into manageable pieces and works with clients on immediate next steps.
Leslie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She looks at thinking patterns, behavior, and routines to find changes that make a measurable difference. Progress is reviewed regularly so goals can be adjusted if needed.
People who choose Leslie often want direct, practical work rather than long open-ended therapy. She helps clarify priorities, reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, and rebuild routines after loss or life transitions.

How Leslie uses evidence-based methods in remote work
Leslie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that look at thoughts, behaviors, and routines. One common approach focuses on recognizing and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns so anxiety and low mood become easier to manage. It helps with worry, avoidance, and low motivation by teaching practical ways to test and change thoughts.Another approach targets daily routines and behaviors. This method breaks larger problems into small, doable steps and builds consistent habits to improve mood and reduce stress. It is often used for depression, life transitions, and adjusting to new health concerns.
Choosing the best approach is collaborative. Leslie will work with each person to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust plans based on what helps. The process is gradual and oriented toward what fits the client's needs and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins, or fitting a session into a lunch break. Licensed professionals commonly adapt techniques to remote sessions so people can practice skills between meetings and track progress over time.
