01About Leanne
Leanne Horvitz uses gentle, evidence-based techniques to help people move through stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, sleep problems, and life changes. She practices Clinical Hypnotherapy and Therapeutic Imagery alongside mindfulness-based tools. Leanne holds the LPCC credential, which reflects her California licensure, and brings three years of clinical experience to sessions.
Her style is calm and focused. She guides clients through imagery and hypnotic techniques to tap into mental habits and body reactions.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm, interrupt unhelpful patterns like substance use or smoking, and improve sleep and self-care routines. Leanne works with adults facing career transitions, young adult issues, adoption and foster care concerns, dissociation, and the emotional work of forgiveness and self-love. She helps people set clear, practical goals and builds step-by-step plans to meet them.
Her approach is practical and paced to each person’s needs. In early sessions she listens to what matters most and tests imagery and hypnotic exercises gently. Over time clients practice mindfulness and short mental rehearsals between sessions to reinforce progress.
She explains techniques in plain language and checks in often to adjust the plan. Sessions are offered in English and are conducted online using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Leanne aims to make therapy fit a busy life while supporting steady change.

04Online support
How imagery, hypnotherapy, and online sessions work together
Leanne commonly uses Clinical Hypnotherapy to help shift automatic reactions and strengthen new patterns. This approach guides attention and relaxation so people can rehearse calmer responses and reduce cravings or anxiety symptoms in a focused way.She also uses Therapeutic Imagery to create mental scenes that support healing and problem solving. Imagery exercises help with sleep, trauma processing, forgiveness work, and building self-compassion by practicing new inner experiences in-session and between meetings.
Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to goals and adjusts techniques based on what feels helpful. Clients and therapist check progress together and change the plan when needed to match preferences and results.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for guided imagery work, phone calls can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and brief check-ins or exercises can be done by text or live chat between appointments. These options make it easier to fit consistent work into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
