About Leigh

Leigh Partridge is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 26 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, and related life changes. She also addresses career issues, ADHD, bipolar, depression, and compassion fatigue.

Leigh uses a mix of client-centered methods, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral approaches in sessions. She keeps conversations interactive and practical, helping people talk through patterns that keep causing upset. Sessions focus on real-life steps - recognizing triggers, changing unhelpful thoughts, and trying out new responses.

Her background includes work in community clinics, schools, and hospitals across varied settings. That range has shaped a straightforward style that balances listening with concrete tools. She often pairs emotionally focused work with behavioral steps to improve communication and reduce reactivity.

People meet practical strategies for managing anger, rebuilding trust after conflicts, and improving everyday coping. Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing techniques are used to increase awareness and sustain changes. Treatment plans are developed together, with attention to immediate concerns and longer-term goals.

If someone is ready to begin, the usual next steps are a brief intake and setting clear goals for the first few sessions. Leigh encourages clients to bring examples from daily life to discuss, so sessions stay grounded and useful.

How sessions work

How Leigh’s approaches are used in online sessions

Leigh commonly draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can identify their priorities and feel heard. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete tools to change patterns that lead to anger or anxiety.

She also uses emotionally-focused ideas and mindfulness exercises to help people notice how emotions show up in relationships and in the body. Mindfulness supports slowing down reactions, and emotionally-focused work helps improve connection and communication during conflicts.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Leigh will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and then decide together which methods to try. That lets the work shift if something isn’t helping and keeps focus on practical changes the client wants.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether she offers video, phone, or other formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. The emphasis is on making sessions usable in everyday life while testing new strategies for managing anger and improving relationships.
