About Leslie
Leslie Flowers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with three decades of experience. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, bipolar concerns, addictions, ADHD, and relationship or family challenges. He encourages a calm, open space where people can say what’s on their mind without feeling judged.
Leslie uses practical strategies to help people manage difficult feelings and rebuild daily routines. He often blends acceptance-based methods with cognitive tools to change unhelpful thinking and reduce distress.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear, doable steps that clients can try between meetings. He aims to make sessions feel collaborative and straightforward. Leslie listens first, then helps clients set small, realistic goals.
He checks progress and adjusts the plan if something isn’t working. Across 30 years of work he has supported people through grief, trauma, caregiving strain, chronic illness, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and life transitions like divorce and retirement. That breadth informs his practical approach to coping, problem solving, and building meaning.
Leslie offers a mix of phone, video, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. He welcomes people from outside the region and works with each person to find what fits their life and goals.
Approaches you can use during online sessions
Leslie commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT helps people notice their thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choose actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with painful memories. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leslie treats therapy as a collaboration and will help you choose methods that match your goals, needs, and preferences. He will review what’s helping and what isn’t and adjust the plan together over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and longer therapy work. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let you send notes or short updates between sessions and can fit around busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or travel.
