About Leigh
Leigh Ann Drew is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida who centers her practice on attachment-based ideas and practical help. She draws on ten years of experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Her work is straightforward and focused on what someone needs now.
Leigh Ann keeps sessions warm and direct. She uses client-centered conversation to let people name what matters to them.
Background and approach

These methods are mixed in ways that fit each person's goals and pace. Leigh Ann also helps with work issues, compassion fatigue, ADHD concerns, and questions about meaning and life purpose. She supports people dealing with adoption and foster care topics, attachment struggles, caregiver strain, and end-of-life matters.

Online support
Attachment-informed approaches available online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape our expectations and feelings. It helps people notice patterns from early connections and try new ways of relating to reduce distress and build trust. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's priorities, offering a nonjudgmental space to talk through concerns and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can ease anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and approaches are adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video works well when visual connection matters, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work even when schedules change.
