About May

May Leflore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem struggles, and major life changes.

Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She creates a setting where clients can speak openly about thoughts and feelings. Conversations aim to clarify what matters most and to identify small, practical steps forward.

May uses techniques from client-centered therapy to listen and reflect, and she integrates cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Sessions often include talking through recent situations, identifying patterns, and trying different responses outside of sessions.

She also works with concerns such as forgiveness, living with HIV/AIDS, hospice and end-of-life counseling, obsessions and compulsions, paranoia, and personality disorder-related difficulties. These areas are addressed through the same practical, step-by-step focus on clear goals and everyday coping skills.

Her style suits people who want direct, plain-language conversation about their problems. She encourages taking gradual steps toward feeling more in control and finding better ways to handle anger, resentment, and recurring stress.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflection, and helping a person clarify their goals. It is useful for talking through anger, relationship strain, and grieving, because it prioritizes the client’s concerns and personal perspective.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It helps people spot patterns that feed anger or anxiety, try small behavior changes, and practice different ways of responding to difficult situations.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. She will talk with clients about what methods feel useful and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize skill practice, reflective conversation, or both.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when helpful, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can also guide clients in carrying new skills into daily routines so the work fits everyday life.
