LeShunn McLeod , LPC

LeShunn McLeod is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with 10 years of experience in the counseling field. She earned her license in Alabama and has been providing care since 2016, working across individual, family, and group formats in both in-office and online settings as well as in residential and outpatient programs.

Her work addresses a broad range of concerns that can affect daily life, including stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem challenges, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, parenting struggles, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, anger, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She also attends to related areas such as abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, caregiver stress, codependency, communication and attachment issues, blended family dynamics, divorce and separation, and substance use concerns.

In clinical practice she often draws from reality therapy, an approach that moves beyond discussion to helping people make concrete choices that improve their lives. Her focus is on finding meaningful, practical solutions that support lasting change, and she approaches each therapeutic relationship with a goal-oriented, collaborative mindset. She encourages people who are taking the first step toward seeking help and welcomes inquiries via her website at www.btctherapy.org.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

LeShunn McLeod integrates several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites clients to clarify their values and take committed action, helping with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by focusing on what matters most. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for the client’s perspective, creating space for people to explore feelings and build self-acceptance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. LeShunn works with each person to evaluate which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and adapts strategies as progress unfolds so the treatment feels relevant and achievable.

Online therapy with LeShunn offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity of care during transitions, and access support from home or another private space while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to individual needs.
