About Todd
LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) in New York with 20 years of experience, Todd Leonard helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. He speaks English and works with clients from within and outside the U.S. Todd uses Narrative Therapy as a primary approach.
Todd focuses on clear conversation and practical steps. Sessions look at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. He pays attention to patterns such as attachment or control issues and how those patterns affect daily life.
He commonly addresses concerns like panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace stress, and problems that follow separation or loss. Todd also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, forgiveness, and midlife shifts. Men’s issues and communication problems are areas he often explores with clients.
In sessions he listens for recurring themes and helps clients reframe those themes into more workable narratives. That can mean identifying unhelpful assumptions, testing small changes, and noticing what shifts. Treatment plans are developed through discussion rather than fixed scripts.
Todd describes his role as a collaborator who helps people clarify goals and try concrete changes between sessions. He uses his experience to guide the process and adjust approaches as needed. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Narrative approaches and remote work
Talking about patterns and meanings is central to Narrative Therapy. It helps people separate themselves from their problems and look at unhelpful stories that keep repeating. This approach can be useful for anxiety, relationship conflict, grief, and post-traumatic stress because it focuses on specific incidents and the meaning attached to them.Todd treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He works with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan if something isn’t working. Clients and the therapist decide together which themes to focus on and what steps to try between sessions.
Confirm the exact session delivery options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to check in without traveling. It also allows for shorter or more frequent contacts when that helps, and for choosing audio-only or video options based on bandwidth, comfort with being on camera, or the need for a quicker check-in.
