About me

I am licensed male therapist in California. I am not allowed to work with anyone not located in California during the therapy session. I have 30 plus years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients and couples with relationship issues, family conflicts, child abuse, & parenting issues. I have worked with families, teens and children in the Department of Mental Health and in Child Protective Services as well as an Adult Psychiatric Unit. I cared for my mother 24/7 for the last four years of her life. I cared for a couple in their 90s for the last four years of their lives. At the end I worked with the hospice team. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Those who are religious I address that when appropriate. Those who are not religious I never bring that up. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Leslie Patt. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Leslie’s thoughtfulness, thoroughness and candid feedback has allowed me to understand situations from a different perspective. Being able to ask him questions pertaining to God and faith has been a plus. His direct approach helps the sessions feel more meaningful.

Written on Jun 17, 2026 after therapy with Leslie for 1 year and 3 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, grief, anger management, and coping with life changes

Leslie is insightful and brings valuable life experience to our sessions; he is laid back and confident while also bringing compassion, understanding, and advice to the table. It’s been a while since I’ve had a therapist or known anyone who managed to successfully blend all of these traits.
