About LeAnn
She draws on three decades of professional experience. That background informs how she listens and how she helps clients break problems into manageable parts. Sessions emphasize understanding what matters most to each person and setting realistic goals that fit day-to-day life.
Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness practices. That means she starts by learning a person’s story, then helps them test small changes in thinking and behavior while building habits that reduce distress.
Dr. Bruce also pays attention to life meaning and values through existential conversations. She supports people dealing with family problems, caregiving strain, domestic violence aftermath, and challenges related to military service. Traumatic brain injury is listed among areas she focuses on.
She holds LCSW credentials and has practiced in Kentucky for many years. Sessions are conducted in English. People who want to begin can use the Start Therapy button and complete a brief matching questionnaire to schedule time based on therapist availability.

Approaches suited to remote sessions and day-to-day life
The practice uses client-centered work to prioritize each person's goals and values. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the person, and shaping sessions around their priorities.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and then tests small behavioral changes. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and managing addictive behaviors through practical exercises and homework.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build steady routines. These skills often help when stress or past trauma makes it hard to focus or sleep.
Choosing the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to find methods that fit their needs, goals, and daily routine. That choice is revisited as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, support shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, mindful awareness practices, and client-centered conversations to remote settings so that therapy fits into everyday life without demanding large schedule changes.
