Meet LeeAnne
Hi. I’m LeeAnne.
I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor, former teacher, former school administrator, and mom of college-age kids. For over 23 years, I’ve worked alongside young women — in classrooms, counseling offices, and private practice — and I’ve seen the same thing over and over again.
She’s capable. She’s smart. She just needs someone in her corner.
My Story
Why I built g(IRL) + Co.
I spent years watching young women navigate the hardest transitions of their lives — graduation, college, first jobs, first heartbreaks, identity shifts — without anyone really in their corner. Not a parent (too close). Not a friend (going through the same thing). Not a therapist (not what they needed).
There was a gap. A real one. And I kept seeing girls fall into it.
So I built the bridge.
g(IRL) + Co. is the answer to the question I kept hearing: “Is there someone I can just talk to? Someone who gets it?”
Yes. That’s me. That’s what this is.

🎓
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Florida LMHC MH20088. I hold a master's in clinical mental health counseling and have worked in private practice.

💼

Mom of College-Age Kids
I don't just understand this professionally. I live it personally. I know what parents are hoping for — and what their daughters actually need.
✨
Founder of g(IRL) + Co.
I built this because the gap was real and the need was urgent. Every piece of this was designed from the inside out.
My Philosophy
How I show up for her.
I meet her where she is.
Not where I think she should be. Not where her parents hope she is. Right where she actually is — and we build from there.
I don't have a script.
Every coaching relationship is built around her — her values, her goals, her story. No curriculum. No one-size-fits-all program.
I show up with big sister energy, only with professional expertise you can trust.
Not a therapist. Not a parent. Someone who's been through it, knows the terrain, and is fully in her corner.
I know when to refer out.
I'm a licensed counselor. I know the difference between coaching and clinical care — and I never blur that line.
Say Hello
Drop me a note.
I actually read these.
Whether you’re a parent wondering if this is right for your daughter, a young woman who just wants to talk to someone real, or a professional who wants to refer a client — I’d love to hear from you.
No pressure. No pitch. Just a real conversation.
“As always, I’m just right here.” — LeeAnne
