Adults Therapists in Idyllwild, CA

Your story matters and is unique to you. Psychotherapy is not a magic pill that makes everything perfect. There is no one-size fits all. Sharing your story, your pain, and your struggles allows for you to be heard and understood in a non-judgmental and confidential space. By understanding you and your experiences, changes can begin to occur that will improve your quality of life and well-being. I offer convenient Live Video Sessions to meet your schedule needs. California residents only. Check out my website for more info: https://nostresenranch.wixsite.com/nostresensolutions (Call to book, online booking not currently available)

My name is Lindsey Leonard, LCSW. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Los Angeles, California, providing therapy services to clients statewide via telehealth. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and couples, with a focus on addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment, and stress-related symptoms. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to empower clients in navigating and improving their well-being.

My goal is to provide a, safe and non-judgmental place where I can help my client's reach their full potential by processing feelings, improving communication, and exploring family issues that may be a barrier to success. I have worked with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families with various issues including: Depression, Coming Out Issues, Increasing Intimacy, Sexual Identity, Self Esteem, Increasing Happiness, Stress Management, Bereavement, Internalized homophobia, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, and Help with Lifestyle Choices. I work with both LGBTQI and heterosexual people.

Sometimes pain in our life keeps us feeling stuck even though we might want to move to a healthier, free place. I am all about providing a safe, relaxing and compassionate environment, where we can work together towards self awareness and growth. Thank you for reading my profile. I commend you for your courage in wanting to grow and make positive change in your life. No one enjoys a boring session, so I strive to have some creativity into our time as I work with children, teens and adults.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing mindful, relational, and somatic therapy for adults and teens via telehealth. I work with teens and adults who are navigating the many difficulties of life. The populations and issues that I best serve include LGBTQIA+, anxiety, panic attacks, relationship and family issues, burnout, grief/loss, major life transitions, and depression. I am a client-centered therapist which means that my approach to each client varies depending on their needs. I utilize varying theories and modalities that are rooted in relationships including psychodynamic, attachment, and family systems.

I specialize in conducting psychological assessments/testing and developmental assessments with early childhood age children (Birth - 5), school age children, adolescents and adults. I have expertise in the evaluation of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), ADHD, Intellectual Disabilities, and adults seeking to reunify with their children. I take a family-centered and therapeutic approach to conducting psychological evaluations, providing evidence-based recommendations and treatment.

I help teens, young adults and college students navigate feeling stuck and overwhelmed. My clients often feel lost, misunderstood and alone when first coming to therapy. They aren't sure about how to move forward with their lives and that feels defeating. There are so many different paths and so many steps to take, it's overwhelming. They know that they are ready for the next chapter, but aren't sure how to get there. Together, we can give you the clarity you have been searching for. You deserve to be excited about the future, not scared, and I am excited to show you how to get there.
