Hi there, I'm Leslie. Do you often find yourself overwhelmed by the demands of a busy life? Maybe you feel like something is "off" that you cannot quite identify. You may feel disconnected and experience frequent low moods. You might be someone who has been diagnosed or self-identified as neurodivergent, or you may be raising a neurodivergent child and feeling lost in coping with your feelings about how to navigate that challenge. You might be stuck in (or exiting) a romantic relationship that does not serve you, but you are struggling to find your path forward. Whatever the source of your anxiety, I am here to help! I support individuals across a spectrum of ages and circumstances to understand how to find their footing in their daily lives. I use a unique person-centered behavioral approach that is affirming and includes action steps to access change. When you meet with me, you will hear "real talk" grounded in evidenced-based techniques. Together we will discover a path to a more manageable daily life that fits your specific circumstances. Congratulations on taking the step to seek support through therapy. l look forward to working together!

I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals and couples overcome challenges like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, ADHD, and relationship conflict. My approach is warm, supportive, and practical—focused on helping people feel better and live more fulfilling lives. Using evidence-based tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, I guide clients to identify unhelpful patterns, manage overwhelming emotions, and build on their strengths. Whether it’s learning to quiet anxious thoughts, navigate tough conversations, or stay focused and motivated, I work alongside each client to find what truly works for them. Change doesn’t have to take forever—and you don’t have to do it alone. With the right support, real growth is not only possible—it’s closer than you think.

If we are engaged in challenging work, you can expect me to be patient, calm, and open-minded.

My approach to therapy depends on the needs of each client I work with. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as both of these modalities help to identify and cultivate an individual’s strengths, which can lead us to finding meaning and purpose in life. I decided to become a therapist because I wanted to help others with their problems. As a mom to 7 children (who are all grown up), and as a music teacher at a grammar school, I was always involved with families. I learned through my training how thoughts, feelings, and actions affect our behavior. I would like to help others build a better relationship with themselves and others, and see them grow and flourish and find meaning and purpose in their lives.

My interest in the field of mental health began at a young age when I witnessed the way people sought my mother, a spiritual individual, for comfort and solace. These experiences imbued in me the value of community, empathy, and service to others. As a therapist, I am able to provide patients with the treatment and tools necessary to navigate difficult emotions. It is an honor to be able to hold a safe space for patients to be vulnerable, safe, and to experience healing. My philosophy of care is to work alongside my patients while creating an empathic, non-judgmental, and safe space. Patients will find that I provide a warm, authentic, and respectful approach. I believe in working collaboratively with patients to identify and develop the tools necessary for patients to live more fulfilling lives.

With nearly 20 years of experience working with individuals, children, teens, and families, I have been actively focusing on teletherapy for the past 5 years, ensuring that clients receive high-quality care and support regardless of their location. My career began in community-based therapy, where my out-of-the-box style was nurtured and reinforced. In these settings, families, teens, and children often felt labeled as hopeless, both internally and externally by agencies such as schools, social services, and probation. My approach has always been to meet clients where they are, both literally and figuratively, helping them discover better coping mechanisms and become more effective in their lives. I provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions, gaining insight and tools to manage them effectively. My approach to therapy is flexible, out of the box, and adaptable to each individual's unique needs. I prioritize creating a comfortable environment where clients feel at ease expressing themselves, helping them achieve meaningful and lasting change in their lives.
