About Leigh-Anne
Leigh-Anne Husted is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and issues around identity and addiction. She brings 11 years of experience to sessions and focuses on attachment concerns, parenting strain, and the lingering effects of trauma and loss. She takes a direct, down-to-earth approach.
Sessions are conversational and practical. She listens for patterns in relationships and daily routines, then works with clients to try different ways of responding and coping.
Background and approach
Leigh-Anne earned a Master of Social Work from Florida State University. Her early career was with at-risk youth and young adults, including work in schools, residential care, wilderness therapy, and with people experiencing homelessness. That background shaped her focus on safety, stability, and building dependable routines.
In therapy she blends attachment-based ideas with client-centered conversation and tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolbox when they fit a person's goals. People meet her for help managing overwhelming emotions, healing from past wounds, improving communication, and finding more balance between caregiving and self-care.
She aims to help clients notice what isn’t working and try small, realistic changes that can make daily life easier.

Online support
How attachment work and practical skills translate online
Leigh-Anne uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds shape current relationship patterns. This approach helps people notice connection needs, boundaries, and repetitive reactions that cause pain in close relationships. It can be useful for people dealing with abandonment, codependency, or difficulty trusting others.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the focus on each person's experience. That means sessions are guided by what the client brings, with the therapist offering reflection and support rather than directing the process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through short exercises and homework between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can change over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video can support face-to-face conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is not possible. Live chat and messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer appointments. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives.
