About Leanette

Leanette Henagan draws on a cognitive behavioral framework alongside client-centered and mindfulness practices to help people manage anxiety, stress, addictions, and self-esteem challenges.

Background and approach

She brings 19 years of clinical experience to an integrative approach that blends practical skills with compassionate listening, guiding clients through transitions such as postpartum changes, midlife shifts, workplace stress, and caregiving burdens. Her LCSW credential is noted and she practices in Arizona.

Henagan emphasizes collaboration and strengths-based coaching to address life purpose, forgiveness, guilt, and body image concerns while also supporting issues related to money, communication problems, and co-morbidity. She integrates solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to set attainable goals and sustain progress.

Sessions are tailored to each person’s situation, aiming to build coping skills and healthier patterns for long-term benefit.

Online Approaches That Blend Skill-Building and Compassion

Leanette often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; this approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and addictive behaviors because it focuses on practical strategies and measurable goals. She also incorporates client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and the client’s own expertise in their life, creating a supportive space for exploring values and meaning. Mindfulness therapy is used to develop present-moment awareness and self-regulation skills that can reduce reactivity and improve coping with emotional challenges.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She works with clients to determine which combination of techniques best matches their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with her is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and use skills learned in therapy in daily routines.
