About May

May Leflore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with eight years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, and low self-esteem. Her approach centers on listening and creating space for honest conversation.

She aims to build an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can talk about difficult feelings. Sessions emphasize practical steps and small changes that fit into daily life. May encourages clients to notice what helps and to try new ways of coping at a manageable pace.

May uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s lead and make therapy feel grounded in their experience. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on patterns of thinking and behavior and on skills for managing distressing thoughts and feelings.

People often come to work through loss, trauma, relationship conflict, or major life changes. May spends time understanding what matters most to each person and sets goals together. The work is collaborative and paced to the client’s needs.

She supports efforts toward forgiveness, coping with serious illness and end-of-life concerns, and addressing obsessive or paranoid thoughts when they arise. May accepts international clients and offers care in English.

How her approaches guide online therapy

May uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person’s experience. This approach means the therapist listens closely, follows the client’s lead, and helps them find their own solutions. It is useful for people who want a space to process emotions and be heard.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT includes practical techniques such as noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying new responses, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. May will discuss goals and preferences and will adjust methods based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual.
