About Leslie
Leslie Mulligan welcomes people who are exhausted by mood swings, relationship strain, or the stress of big life changes. She writes plainly and meets people where they are, offering steady guidance for anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, and struggles with self-esteem or intimacy. Leslie has worked in mental health for 24 years.
She holds a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential, LCMHC, and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential, LCPC, with practice based in Maine.
Background and approach
She speaks English and French and sees international clients when appropriate. Her way of working is warm and direct. Sessions are present-focused and interactive, with practical tools and time to talk through feelings and behaviors.
Leslie blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with attachment-aware and emotionally focused ideas, plus skills drawn from dialectical behavior therapy when needed. She also brings a body-centered perspective that links physical experience with emotion and thought. That can help when sleep, chronic illness, or stress are tangled with mood and relationships.
Leslie uses creative approaches at times to open new ways of coping. People often come for help with career pressure, parenting strain, bereavement, or long-standing trauma. She aims to clarify where someone is now and what small changes could make daily life feel more manageable.
The process is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session through the Start Therapy button. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what fits best.

Online support
How Leslie’s Approaches Work Online
Leslie uses Attachment-Based Therapy to help people understand how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional reactions, which can be useful for intimacy, trust, and communication struggles. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical method that looks at thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leslie collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals and life situation. She adjusts tools and pacing based on what the client needs and prefers so progress feels manageable rather than rushed.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, so people can pick what suits them. Video lets for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good shorter option or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when writing feels easier than talking. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life or to connect from another region.
