Leanna Miller Marquez

Leanna Miller Marquez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with four years of experience in social service and mental health settings. Leanna centers care on each person’s lived experience and the knowledge held in the body. They aim to support people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and shifts in identity or sexuality.

Leanna recognizes how larger systems shape emotional and physical wellbeing. They help people talk through grief, life changes, and communication or commitment problems. Practical support is part of the work, including connecting people to community resources when needed.

Sessions are built around the goals the client brings. Leanna adapts pace and focus so people can move at a speed that feels manageable. The practice emphasizes understanding each person as a whole rather than a list of symptoms.

People commonly bring concerns such as body image, guilt and shame, isolation, and caregiver stress. Leanna also works with issues like infidelity, domestic violence impacts, and fatherhood questions, always tailoring the work to individual needs.

Leanna describes the therapeutic relationship as collaborative and grounded in respect. They welcome both people returning to therapy and those trying it for the first time, and they aim to provide clear, everyday support and practical next steps.

Background and approach: With a focus on evidence-based therapeutic techniques, Leanna uses straightforward conversation and concrete planning to help clients cope with anxiety, stress, and relationship problems. They attend to identity and gender concerns while helping people improve communication, set boundaries, and manage life transitions. Goals, pacing, and referrals to additional services are decided together during the course of work.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Leanna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on clear conversation and practical problem solving. One common approach involves helping people identify unhelpful thinking and test new ways of responding, which can reduce worry and improve daily coping. Another approach focuses on improving communication and relationship skills through role practice and concrete feedback, which helps with conflicts and commitment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Leanna will work with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what is working and what is not.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, let you join from different places, and shorten travel time. They also make it simpler to schedule brief check-ins or longer deep work when needed. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and help choose a plan that fits the client’s everyday life.
