About Leonor
Her approach centers on practical help for everyday problems. She meets people where they are and focuses on trauma, intimacy, communication, and self-worth. She also supports people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and concerns about sexual health and sexual functioning.
Leonor pays close attention to how attachment and abandonment experiences shape current relationships. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through issues like guilt, shame, and isolation. She also addresses concerns tied to kink and alternative sex culture, polyamory, and process addictions such as problematic pornography or gambling.
Sessions tend to focus on clear, achievable steps. That can mean practicing communication skills, naming unhelpful patterns, or learning ways to manage anxiety and shame. Leonor works with each person to set realistic goals and track small changes over time.
She is working toward a Certification as a Sex Therapist through the Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT). Leonor combines that ongoing training with her LPC background to support people navigating sexual concerns and intimacy-related issues.
How Leonor Uses Evidence-Based Techniques Online
Leonor uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, intimacy, and sexual concerns. One common approach she relies on helps people identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practice new responses in daily life. This kind of work supports anxiety, shame, and relationship problems by teaching concrete skills to try between sessions.She also focuses on attachment-related work that looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps with fears of abandonment, communication problems, and difficulties forming closeness. Practical exercises and conversation guide clients to notice patterns and practice different ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Leonor discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods as needed. She balances skill-building, emotional processing, and real-life practice to match what the client wants to change.
