Leigh Evans, LMSW, LCSW

Leigh Evans is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental approach that makes it easier to talk about hard things. Leigh works to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared honestly. She recognizes that reaching out for help takes courage and offers steady support through that first step.

Leigh holds a Licensed Master Social Worker credential and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, and she brings ten years of professional experience to her practice. She draws on several practical approaches to tailor care to each persons needs. Sessions focus on real-life strategies clients can use between meetings as well as on understanding patterns that keep problems stuck.

Her work often centers on helping people cope with major life changes, caregiving challenges, and relationship stress. She also supports those dealing with cancer-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life issues, and compassion fatigue. Leigh addresses both immediate coping skills and longer-term goals such as rebuilding meaning and purpose.

Clients can expect clear, straightforward conversation and collaborative goal-setting. Leigh mixes acceptance-based strategies, mindfulness practices, and client-centered listening to help people notice what matters and take workable steps forward. Her background includes experience across a variety of stressful and traumatic situations in Florida and Michigan.

How Leigh's approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters most and take small actions in line with their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, life changes, and trauma-related avoidance. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding without judgment so people can find their own pace and solutions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Leigh will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. She combines techniques as needed and checks in regularly to adjust the plan together.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when needed. It can also support continuity of care after a move or during caregiving demands. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and focus to match practical constraints and daily life.
