I was unsure about doing therapy and doing it on line. Leslie has listened to me and taken what I say and connected it to what I am experiencing. It has been a very eye opening experience. I am so glad I finally did this!

As a licensed therapist with nearly three decades of clinical experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My approach is compassionate and holistic, drawing from extensive expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship dynamics.
I offer a supportive therapeutic environment where clients can explore difficult emotions, heal from past experiences, and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My practice focuses on helping individuals navigate diverse challenges, including family conflicts, social anxiety, grief, addiction recovery, and life stage transitions.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I was unsure about doing therapy and doing it on line. Leslie has listened to me and taken what I say and connected it to what I am experiencing. It has been a very eye opening experience. I am so glad I finally did this!
She is wonderful . I enjoy her so much
If could give Leslie more than 10, I would do so. She is the very best - caring, compassionate, offers wonderful advice. Leslie got me through some bumpy times the last 2 months. I felt like I was talking to a good friend. Would highly recommend!!
So far, Leslie has been amazing. She genuinely listens and makes me feel understood.
Leslie is amazing she has already helped me with so many much needed changes I needed in my life . I can’t wait to see what the future holds with her being my therapist.
Leslie is both knowledgeable and kind . She has a real empathy and is genuine in her wanting to help . Highly recommend!!!
Leslie is extraordinarily insightful. She’s an excellent listener and gives thoughtful feedback. She’s helped me grow tremendously and I’m forever grateful!
She is supportive but firm. I am a very bad procrastinator and she checks in on me. I make a plan to improve my life and then go right back into rest mode. So it helps to have support from someone in between sessions through my journal.
I just cannot say enough good things about Leslie. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable in her field, but she has such empathy, kindness, and wisdom. An all around awesome therapist!
Leslie is amazing! I feel like she actually cares about my mental health and well being and is invested in helping me navigate through a very difficult time. I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist.
Leslie is amazing. I’ve been in therapy before, but Leslie has given me new insight into issues that other therapists have never mentioned. Good listener, professional, respectful. Just can’t say enough good things about her!
My therapist is really great. She listens to me. Without judgment which is so awesome and she always provides a solution and let me know what the problem is and how I can fix it and congratulate me when she sees my improvement on certain things I would definitely recommend her to everyone I know
She listens and makes suggestions based on you. Gives you worksheet based on personal needs and supports a person. I needed someone like her to help me and not just say well that sucks but challenge me. She does challenge and has helped me get out of my funk.
Leslie is great to listen and provide helpful feedback. I leave our sessions feeling lighter and with a clear mind.
Leslie was the perfect match for me, she has helped me look forward to counseling appointments. After the first session I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Leslie has helped me recognize the sources of my anxiety and validated my feelings so that I could process them and find solutions to move forward. I’m so glad I took the hardest step by scheduling a session, I look forward to more healing as I continue therapy with Leslie.
Ms. Leslie helps to get to the root issues. She definitely asks the tough questions to help jumpstart the process of healing. She’s a strong, yet gentle therapist that makes me aware of my weaknesses while building on my strengths.
