Most personal struggles and relationship issues result from problems with the relationship with the self, rooted in relational injury experienced earlier in life. Therapy involves a dual process of understanding and healing the wounds we have experienced; and healing the relationship with the self. Identifying where we are off in our relationship with ourselves helps us to improve self-esteem; have healthy, fulfilling relationships; and take charge of the areas of our lives that feel unmanageable.

Life can be overwhelming, and when anxiety takes hold, it can consume our thoughts and make it difficult to live the life we truly want. Navigating life's challenges whether it's dealing with stress, managing relationships, or coping with past trauma can feel daunting and exhausting. But you don’t have to face these challenges alone. My approach is rooted in evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. These methods help you develop practical skills to manage anxiety, regulate emotions, and make positive changes in your life.

Hi, my name is Leslie. 15 years ago my husband was killed in a car accident while I was pregnant with our child. I was broken and did not know if I would ever feel happiness again. With the help of therapy I learned the tools I needed to heal, feel happiness again and even thrive. Today I want to help teach you these tools. Trauma and grief can be overwhelming and debilitating. I am a trauma specialist and I can help you make the stress, anxiety, depression and PTSD from a trauma experience greatly reduced. You are not alone.

NOT accepting new clients.....Are you struggling with feelings of negative emotions that are paralyzing? Ever have thoughts such as "I'm not deserving, I'm not good enough, I'm a failure, or I can't trust myself"? These can be healed and addressed with counseling while learning how to appropriately manage emotions through effective coping and healing of past traumas. EMDR is a form of treatment that allows the body to heal by eliminating the impact of negative beliefs from unresolved trauma and emotional distress. I integrate parts work and the goal is to let all parts of you feel seen and heard.

In Buddhist philosophy, "pain is inevitable, suffering is optional." The story of the Buddha and the two arrows explains this well – while the first arrow may cause physical or emotional pain, the second arrow is one’s reaction to it – the self-talk, the self-blame, and negative thoughts that amplify the pain. Counseling can help you put down the second arrow and transform your suffering into growth, learning and resilience.
