About Beverly
Beverly Leonardi is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in New Mexico with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem, depression, and ADHD, and also addresses related concerns such as codependency, family of origin issues, and life purpose.
She works with adults who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships, or health. Sessions are direct and structured. Conversations focus on what is happening now, practical steps, and clearer next actions rather than abstract theory.
Her style blends active listening with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Beverly helps people recognize patterns that keep them feeling stuck. She works on breaking unhelpful cycles, managing panic or intrusive thoughts, and reducing substance-related harms when addiction is an issue.
When trauma or dissociation is involved, she uses methods aimed at regulating strong emotions and rebuilding everyday routines. For attention and executive function concerns, she looks at strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve task management.
Beverly also supports people who are wrestling with life purpose and meaning after a major change. Sessions include goal setting, small behavioral experiments, and practical communication skills to handle difficult conversations.
To begin, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and services use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches used and online delivery
Evidence-based techniques are central to Beverly's work. One common approach she uses focuses on skills for regulating intense emotions and reducing panic. This involves learning grounding and breath-based strategies, practicing short exercises, and building a step-by-step plan to handle sudden anxiety or panic attacks.Another frequent focus is behavioral strategies for addiction and habit change. This approach breaks problems into small, achievable steps, helps people track triggers, and develops alternative behaviors to reduce substance use or other compulsive patterns.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Beverly will discuss different methods, try options that match a client's goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and based on the client's needs and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during a lunch break or between responsibilities. If someone needs a shorter check-in or prefers fewer visual demands, that can be discussed when arranging sessions.
