Leanne Christian

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I help people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, self-doubt, trauma, or major life changes find steadiness again. My clients are often caring, capable people who feel stuck in survival mode—wanting peace but unsure how to get there. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what’s been weighing on you, and rebuild a sense of ease and confidence. We will also look back at how early life experiences shaped the way you see yourself and others, so we can shift old beliefs and habits that no longer serve you. My style is warm, honest, and collaborative—you’ll never have to face your struggles alone.

I guide people to make sense of what’s going on inside—the racing thoughts, the heaviness, the tension that lives in the body, and the patterns that keep repeating—and turn that insight into real change. We’ll build tools to calm your mind, regulate emotions, and set boundaries that actually stick.

I'm so glad you're here! I love working with new moms, helping them navigate the transition into their new role, and high achieving women who have learned to self silence and/or suppress their needs. Helping women navigate any of the challenging transitions of life (newly separated/divorced, new jobs, new relationship, college admission/graduation) is a real passion of mine!

If you have been feeling stuck and having difficulty with motivation or decision paralysis, I can help with that! If you have been struggling to experience joy, let's talk!

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fayetteville

Finding the right therapist in Fayetteville starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy here include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and trauma — and with Fort Liberty nearby, many providers also specialize in military-related stress, PTSD, and life transitions tied to service. Whether you're looking for a licensed clinical mental health counselor, a psychologist, or a psychiatrist for medication management, narrowing your search by specialty and provider type can help you find a strong match.

Beyond clinical fit, practical factors matter too — like whether a provider offers virtual or in-person sessions, their availability, and how they approach care. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of their style and areas of focus, so you can feel more confident going into your first session.

Therapy in Fayetteville can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits your needs and your budget.
