Leigh Hoover
I am a compassionate EMDR trained psychotherapist who values my clients' time. This career path became of interest to me after my time in the military, where I saw many of my friends' lives destroyed by PTSD. I am now committed to healing and advocacy work for veterans and civilians alike suffering from mental health conditions.

If you are willing to put in the effort, I will bring strategies to our sessions with proven success rates, and continually monitor your progress so that I can be sure that you are hitting your personal goals and getting relief from your symptoms.
First session
During my first session I am primarily taking down your history and getting an understanding of your values and goals during therapy.
Strengths
I use evidence based strategies that have proven success. I continually monitor the progress of my clients to make sure that we are meeting their goals.
Ideal clients
I pair best with clients suffering with mild to moderate anxiety, depression, and PTSD. My ideal client is willing to stay open minded and to try to do the homework assigned. I don't expect my clients to always have time to do assignments, but they do tend to find relief faster when the methods we talk about are included in their day to day routines.
Treatment methods
Exposure Response Prevention (ERP)
I use this modality for OCD and as a secondary treatment for PTSD.
