01About Makini

Makini Leno is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD-related focus issues, and major life changes. Her work centers on building a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly about what matters to them.

Makini aims to make sessions straightforward and practical. She listens for patterns that get in the way of daily life and offers tools to try between meetings.

Background and approach

Clients can expect clear suggestions and simple exercises they can use at home. She often draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking. Attachment-informed perspectives guide conversations about closeness and trust.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques are used when people want to accept difficult feelings while moving toward values-based goals. Makini supports people navigating adoption and foster care issues, autism and Asperger syndrome concerns, and caregiving stress. She also helps those facing blended family situations, fatherhood issues, and the practical fallout of separation or divorce.

Conversations can address communication, commitment, control, and intimacy in everyday terms. Sessions are offered in English and delivered in formats that fit busy lives. The focus is on small, manageable changes that add up over time.

Makini prioritizes practical progress and steady support as people work toward better days.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, invites people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while moving toward personally meaningful goals. It is useful for people coping with life changes, emptiness, or ongoing stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing practical behavior changes to improve daily functioning. CBT is often helpful for concentration difficulties, ADHD-related focus problems, and communication patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most in day-to-day life rather than sticking to a single method from the start.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and maintain a face-to-face rhythm while fitting sessions into a commute or work break. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick updates, ongoing coaching, or moments when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep regular contact and try therapeutic tools consistently.
