About me

As a licensed therapist in North Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions. I'm particularly passionate about working with individuals exploring self-love, communication dynamics, personal purpose, and healing from difficult experiences.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate and holistic, drawing from extensive experience supporting diverse populations. I offer a nuanced understanding of women's and men's issues, relationship dynamics, workplace challenges, and personal growth. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, relationship difficulties, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm committed to creating a supportive, non-judgmental space for your healing journey.

I believe in empowering clients to discover their inner strength, develop healthier coping strategies, and cultivate meaningful connections. My work honors each person's unique story, focusing on collaborative growth and sustainable emotional wellness.

Leslie is great! She is very supportive and understanding. She is amazing at validating your feelings, while still providing other points of view. She provides you with resources and examples to help you through your journey, but also doesn’t provide any pressure to improve on a timeline. 100% recommend!
