Crystal Leja, LCSW
About me
Thank you for your interest. My name is Crystal Leja and I am a licensed therapist in the state of NJ. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I am a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC). I have 8 years of experience providing therapy to those that are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, substance abuse, self-esteem issues, and relationship issues.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I will listen without judgement and I treat each of my clients with fairness and respect. I do not believe in labels as they are stigmatizing and hurtful. Each person is different and therefore my approach is different varying on the needs of my client.
Seeking therapy is not easy and it is courageous to even think about taking the first step. Let me help you take the steps towards a happier life and a healthier mind.
I look forward to working with you!
