Lea Frances-Poll

Lea Frances-Poll is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) and an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with ten years of clinical experience based in Utah. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and major life changes. Lea also focuses on codependency, control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and women's issues. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

Lea keeps conversation direct and practical. She listens for the patterns that keep people stuck and helps them test new ways of responding. Work often centers on managing overwhelming feelings, repairing self-worth after loss, and clarifying what matters next when life shifts.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address repeated behavior patterns such as codependency and control struggles. That work can include identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing different communication choices, and building routines that reduce burnout symptoms.

Lea is experienced supporting people in the aftermath of grief and during career or role changes. She helps clients sort through guilt and shame so they can make clearer decisions. Many sessions focus on practical steps and short-term experiments that show what does and doesn’t help.

To begin, clients follow the online process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location.

How evidence-based methods work for online sessions

Lea uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people make concrete changes. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts so clients can reduce anxiety and make clearer choices. Behavioral strategies involve practicing new habits and small experiments to lower stress and rebuild routines that support recovery from burnout and compassion fatigue.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lea will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying practical exercises, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together based on results and feedback.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit visits into a workday, join from a quieter room, or choose a shorter check-in when time is limited. Lea aims to make therapy fit into everyday life through straightforward, goal-oriented sessions that focus on what the client wants to change.
