LEEANN RUSSELL MA LPC

 Your journey, with all its ups, downs, and detours, is still a part of who you are—and it matters.  

LeeAnn Russell, MA, LPC, understands the emotional weight of life’s challenges, especially when expectations—whether from others or yourself—make it easy to feel like you’re falling short.

With over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor and High School Teacher/Counselor in nearby districts (GCISD, LISD, CISD), LeeAnn has gained deep insight into the challenges people face at every stage of life. Her work with teens has shown her the weight of academic stress, social pressures, identity exploration, and the influence of social media on self-esteem and emotional well-being. With emerging adults, she understands the uncertainty and overwhelm that comes with college, careers, and finding independence, as well as the deeper questions of purpose and belonging. For adults, LeeAnn has seen how stress from relationships, parenting, work, and major life transitions can leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. She knows these struggles aren’t just surface-level; they run deep, touching on self-worth, connection, and the fear of letting others—or yourself—down.

Through 50-minute individual counseling sessions, LeeAnn provides a safe, supportive space where clients can unpack their emotions, gain clarity, and heal at their own pace. She works with those experiencing general and social anxiety, depression, ADHD, perfectionism, attachment wounds, "adulting", self-esteem issues, and LGBTQIA+ matters, while also helping clients set boundaries and reconnect with their authentic selves. 

Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Transformation Therapy (ETT), and Inner Child Work, LeeAnn helps her clients find tools to manage life’s challenges and feel more grounded and empowered.

Clients often describe LeeAnn as warm, genuine, and easy to talk to—someone who makes the hardest conversations feel manageable. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to rebuild, LeeAnn is there to walk alongside you with care and compassion.

Outside of the office, LeeAnn loves traveling—especially by cruise ship—and cherishing time with her wife, Emmy, their three adult kids, and their two mini-dachshunds, Sasha and Bella.

At Journey Care Therapy, LeeAnn offers both in-person and online sessions to meet you wherever you are. 

LeeAnn will begin seeing clients at her new location in Flower Mound starting January 13, 2025.

Most Optum, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, and Cigna Insurance plans are accepted. Cash Pay is $140 per session.
