About LeeAnn

LeeAnn Van Vreede is a licensed professional counselor with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She works with concerns like addiction, codependency, grief, parenting stress, and mood disorders. LeeAnn aims to offer steady support during life transitions and times of heavy strain.

LeeAnn’s style is warm and practical. She focuses on listening first, then helping people name what feels hard. Sessions look at daily coping, patterns that keep problems going, and small changes that can ease pressure. She uses straightforward tools people can try between meetings.

Her background includes long work with mood disorders, workplace challenges, and family-of-origin issues. That experience informs how she helps people untangle guilt, shame, and low self-worth. LeeAnn often combines talking, skill practice, and goal-setting to build resilience.

She draws on several therapeutic methods to shape treatment to each person. Approaches include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused ideas. These are used to address things like addiction recovery, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

LeeAnn practices in Wisconsin as an LPC, and she conducts sessions in English. People looking for help can expect a practical, empathetic approach that balances emotional care with tools for everyday life.

How LeeAnn Uses Talk Therapy and Skills Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a strong working relationship. It helps people feel heard and make choices that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and stress, and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to present-moment experience and can reduce reactivity to difficult emotions and cravings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. LeeAnn collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs and goals. She may mix listening-based work with skill practice and goal-focused steps so the plan matches what someone wants to change.

Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be held. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, with options that reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes consistent follow-up and skill practice easier to maintain between meetings. Licensed professionals, including therapists, use these approaches to address stress, codependency, addiction recovery, mood issues, and coping with life changes.
