About LeeAnn
LeeAnn Van Vreede is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and addictive behaviors. She has 20 years of experience guiding people through depression, relationship struggles, and major life changes.

Her style is straightforward and compassionate. Sessions focus on real problems and practical steps. She offers a calm space to talk about guilt, shame, self-esteem, and identity concerns.
Background and approach
LeeAnn draws on client-centered methods to build trust and understand each person’s story. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Mindfulness practices are woven in to help people notice feelings without getting swept away.
Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change, and solution-focused work keeps conversations aimed at small, achievable goals. These approaches are mixed to match what a person needs that day. LeeAnn has particular experience with family of origin issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and mood disorders including bipolar and seasonal affective disorder.
She also supports people facing grief, trauma, and challenges tied to addictions. Based in Wisconsin, LeeAnn combines practical tools with a steady, empathetic presence. She helps people build skills they can use between sessions and make gradual, lasting changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person’s experience without judgment. The therapist listens closely and helps people find their own answers, which is useful for concerns like self-esteem, relationship issues, and identity questions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and then practices new ways of thinking and behaving. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and mood challenges because it leads to concrete skills people can use between sessions.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals, needs, and pace. That means adjusting techniques as progress is made and focusing on what helps most in daily life.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer talks. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or comfort with video is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, homework support, or when someone needs a quick way to process feelings during the week.
These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep working on skills between meetings with a licensed professional.
