About Leslie
Leslie Mulligan is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood swings, and relationship problems. She speaks English and French and draws on 24 years of experience to offer practical, down-to-earth support. Leslie aims to help clients regain more balance in daily life and clarify the next steps they want to take.
Leslie uses a warm, direct style that keeps conversations grounded in the present.
Background and approach
Sessions may include talking, reflective exercises, and creative methods that connect feelings with body sensations and daily routines. She listens for patterns in relationships, attachment, and life transitions that keep people stuck, and works with clients to try different ways of responding.
Her approach blends Jungian ideas about meaning and symbols with client-centered listening and skills-based tools like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. That means she pays attention to inner experience and personal narratives while also teaching coping strategies for emotion regulation, sleep, and stress. The mix helps people address grief, trauma, intimacy struggles, and life-stage concerns.
Leslie has a background supporting people through bereavement, chronic illness, addiction concerns, and career or caregiving strain. She has experience with military-related trauma and work with first responders, and brings trauma-sensitive pacing to difficult topics. Her focus includes attachment issues, codependency, and relationship communication.
Leslie works with adults facing changes in relationships, health, work, or identity. She aims to be respectful, honest, and culturally aware while helping people move toward clearer choices and more ease in daily life.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Leslie blends Jungian therapy and attachment-based ideas with client-centered listening to guide online work. Jungian therapy looks at personal meaning, symbols, and inner narratives to help people make sense of recurring themes and life transitions. Attachment-based therapy focuses on patterns of relating and closeness, helping people identify how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional responses.She approaches this as a collaboration. Together the therapist and client look at goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. They may try reflective discussion, coping skills, or creative exercises and adjust the mix as needed so the approach fits the person's situation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets the therapist and client read faces and tone during deeper conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for on-the-go reflection, processing between sessions, or brief skill practice. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or medical needs while still using therapeutic methods that address meaning, attachment, and coping.
