About Leland

Leland Reeck is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people who feel stuck, aren’t getting their needs met, or want clearer direction in life. He listens closely to what clients want and pays attention to what they need to reach practical goals.

Leland blends evidence-based methods with a strengths-based attitude. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Background and approach

He also uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and narrative therapy to help clients reframe their stories. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Conversations focus on small, manageable steps that fit into daily life.

He emphasizes how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and looks for ways to use a person’s strengths to make meaningful shifts. Leland regularly works with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. He also addresses issues such as caregiver stress, chronic illness, codependency, and fatherhood concerns.

He offers support for people who are hearing impaired and can use American Sign Language. Clients can expect a collaborative process where the therapist and client set priorities together. Leland explains therapeutic choices in plain language and helps people try practical strategies between sessions.

He invites prospective clients to see if the fit feels right before moving forward.

How Leland’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s goals and experiences, letting the therapist follow the client’s lead and build from their strengths. This approach helps when someone needs a steadier, accepting space to figure out what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors that cause distress and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. It breaks issues into concrete patterns and practical exercises that transfer well to remote sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Leland will discuss options and adapt methods based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration means approaches can be mixed or adjusted over time until they fit the client’s pace and situation.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to connect from home, work, or wherever is most convenient. These formats allow flexible scheduling and let people use shorter check-ins or longer sessions as needed. The variety of options helps people maintain momentum between sessions and practice strategies in real life while staying connected to a licensed professional.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
