LMFT, 10 years of experience
Does starting therapy seem intimidating or you don't know where to start? Are you looking for a therapist who's like talking to a professional friend? Do you want someone warm, endlessly encouraging, interactive, and authentic? Here I am! I've worked with all types of clients but specialize in Gen Z/millenials/Xers and LGBTQIA folks who are dealing with life transitions, relationships, anxiety, depression, parenting, and just LIFE.
I hope you leave our sessions feeling lighter, empowered, and supported. My ultimate goal is that my clients outgrow me and integrate a rich support system, healthy coping skills, and insights learned in therapy.
I primarily use a people-centered, relational approach to therapy with interventions from CBT, mindfulness, ACT, and solution-focused therapies. I’m also passionate about self-care, the mind-body connection, and strengthening coping skills and your existing strengths.
I'm also a certified personal trainer and love discussing the mental health benefits of movement (if clients are interested). I'm affirming and supportive of all gender identities/expressions, sexual orientations, and relationship structures. As a biracial, Jewish person I understand the need to find a provider who is understanding of intersectionality. I love learning about different cultures. and religions. Meeting people different than myself is one of the greatest gifts of being a therapist.

Lesli is so great to interact with, so helpful with talking out my concerns and insecurities. I really feel safe trusting Lesli with the difficult feelings and experiences I have had. I feel so much more confident navigating tricky situations in life as they arise since meeting with her and maintaining a consistent therapy relationship.
