Leanne Perales, LMFT

Leanne Perales is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Oklahoma who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and life transitions. She focuses on practical steps people can take to feel more grounded and connected to their values. Sessions center on what matters most to each person and on clear, open communication.

Leanne draws on several evidence-informed approaches to shape sessions. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and still move toward valued actions. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and emotional safety. Client-centered techniques keep the person’s goals and perspective at the heart of the work.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Goals are set together so therapy stays relevant to daily life. She emphasizes a calm, non-judgmental space where people can talk honestly about fears, losses, parenting stresses, caregiving burdens, and identity questions such as LGBT concerns.

Leanne has five years of clinical experience in Oklahoma and holds the LMFT credential. She has helped people facing trauma, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and issues tied to aging and geriatric concerns. She also supports those dealing with career stress, intimacy questions, and family-of-origin patterns.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Leanne commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to shape work with clients. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with their values; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now, and it can help people improve closeness and repair trust in relationships.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and everyday demands. Sessions are adjusted over time if something isn’t working or if needs shift during therapy.

Confirm available session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or from different locations. It also allows for shorter check-ins or longer full sessions depending on what fits a person’s schedule. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so the work carries over into daily routines, which helps people practice new skills between meetings.
