About Gordon
Gordon Leith is a licensed professional counselor with 34 years of experience who draws on Jungian ideas alongside client-centered and cognitive approaches. He focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and life transitions. Gordon emphasizes practical steps and steady support rather than jargon.
He works with adults in one-to-one sessions online and uses methods like hypnotherapy when helpful. Gordon earned a Master of Arts in Counseling with specializations in community mental health and substance abuse treatment from St.
Background and approach
Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas. His background includes work in independent practice, inpatient and outpatient treatment settings, and assignments with federal safety agencies. From 2005 to 2018 he provided Substance Abuse Professional Department of Transportation back-to-work evaluations and plans to resume that work in mid-2024.
Sessions are aimed at building coping skills, boosting self-esteem, and improving motivation for change. He often blends Jungian therapy ideas about meaning and imagery with practical CBT tools to address patterns of thought and behavior. Emotion-focused work may be used to help with relationship and intimacy concerns.
Gordon has used hypnosis in individual practice for over 20 years as an optional tool for issues like smoking cessation, sleep, and anxiety management. He values a collaborative stance and treats clients as the experts in their own lives while offering guidance and structure. The practice is based in Texas and conducted online through video, phone, chat, or text.
Gordon supports people navigating grief, trauma, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, caregiver stress, and other life challenges.

Online support
Bringing Jungian insight and practical therapy online
Jungian Therapy looks at personal symbols, dreams, and life narratives to help uncover deeper meaning behind feelings and patterns; it can be useful when someone wants to understand recurring life themes or identity questions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and supporting the client's own goals and pace, which helps when people need space to process grief, loss, or change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and it often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with addictive urges.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gordon will work together with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan over time. He treats clients as the experts in their stories while offering tools and structure to make change possible.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and work more like in-person sessions, phone calls are useful when lower bandwidth or hands-free time is needed, chat supports quick check-ins or shorter sessions, and messaging is helpful for ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping therapeutic work consistent.
