Workshops and Trainings
Leslie leads workshops on Getting Rid of Psychic Clutter in many forms, of various lengths and in diverse locations. They are all based on her book, or are correlative to her book, Confession is Good for MORE than the Soul.
One such course which she led to a group of University of Utah job-seeking or career-changing alumni, was the highest attended workshop ever for that program. About it, the program director,
Julie Swaner, said:
"Dr. Leslie is an engaging and inspirational speaker. Her compassion, positive energy, and compelling stories create an atmosphere that fosters personal growth and change.
Dr. Leslie's wisdom and heart-connection lead to many paths."
Leslie also leads 6-hour workshops, Getting Rid of Psychic Clutter, for the general population as well as for therapists for continuing education credit. She has led them for CEU credit in Chicago, Salt Lake and Southern California.

Comments by Workshop Participants:
...a vital dynamic approach to identify and release obstacles to personal and professional growth...try it!
– Mel Nosanchuk, Ph.D. Psychologist
A good opportunity for professionals to get clear on those layers of the onion we were going to get to "one day."
– K. Rekoutis
The confession workshop ... provided me an opportunity to clear up some of my own clutter so I can be ever more present with my clients. There isn't anyone on the planet who wouldn't benefit from this book.
– Mary Cosgrove, Business Consultant, What’s Working Well

12 - week Course
Leslie also offers a 12-session course for people who would like a boost, or to feel supported, or to have someone to share with in doing the exercises mentioned in Confession is Good for MORE than the Soul.
Each group decides the length of time between each meeting. These are also available as tele-conferences.
For a 6-week course she led at her church during Lent, a participant said:
At this point I am convinced that this provocative book will open my eyes and help me to live a more clutter-free life!
– Mike Bunn, retired

Trainings
 Leslie, with her husband Robb, runs a company, Gratitude@First, in which, among other things, she teaches classes to court-referred as well as self-referred clients by permission. The classes are Retail Theft, Anger Management and Alcohol and Drug Prevention.
ANGER MANAGEMENT
Leslie has been recognized nationally as an expert on Anger, both inappropriately expressed, sometimes with legal consequences, and with unexpressed or suppressed, with consequences for our health. Although these classes are taught to those convicted of anger-management violations, this class is also a favorite of her friends and associates.
She was featured twice on the Dr. Phil Show (2002 and 2003), working with a woman whose anger was wrecking her family. A segment also appeared on Salt Lake’s KUTV in 2002 featuring the mother with Leslie, speaking about how she healed the family.
What Participants Have Said about Leslie’s Anger Management Class:
Dr. Reynolds was excellent, responding to the class with interest, concern, empathy and examples from her life as well as her education. Very instructive with tools and at the same time personal. I love her!
This was a wonderful class. Very educational and I learned a lot that will be very helpful with all
aspects of my life, both personal and professional. Thank you and keep up the good work!
I wish the course was longer. I benefitted a lot but would actually enjoy meeting again in a few months to follow-up.

SHOPLIFTING OR KLEPTOMANIA
Believing that people only make wise and unwise choices and when they know better they do better, she teaches a class once a month for individuals who are having problems with shoplifting, for which she was featured on KUTV in May 2006 in a segment on kleptomania.
What Participants of Leslie’s Shoplifting Class Have Said:
I thought the class in general was extremely positive. I realize I have been playing the victim role in a lot of areas of my life. I now realize I have the power to make better choices in all of my affairs.
I also feel that I have new skills to work with to make my life more rewarding. Leslie was great. You can truly be yourself with her. For the first time I got a chance to open up.
Very informative, as well as enlightening. The things I learned today, I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I was impressed with the non-judgmental attitude of the teacher. You’ll never see me, again.
Leslie was very informative and honest. She allowed me to be honest with myself and others. This class was very well-taught and it made me realize a lot of things that I need to change. Leslie has been very inspiring to me. Thank you, Leslie

ALCOHOL AND DRUG PREVENTION
Dr. Leslie is a Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor who had a very successful practice in California treating people with problems with alcohol or drugs or coming from a family with addictions. She retired from that practice and now only teaches short Alcohol and Drug
Prevention classes for both youth and adults.
What Participant’s of the Alcohol and Drug Prevention Class Have Said:
This program has changed my life. I came in believing that I didn’t have a problem but am leaving with a fresh new life. I will never forget this program and will be grateful for the knowledge and strength I gained.
The instructor was great! She was knowledgeable and made everybody feel welcome and at ease.
The program is a good approach to the problem of alcoholism and specifically for the alcoholic.
