I was very apprehensive to start therapy, but it has been a positive experience so far. Leslie asks difficult questions at times, but she is very respectful and encouraging. She has also provided helpful resources to use between our sessions.

Wonderful and understanding

Leslie has been a great listener and thoughtful advisor -- she's provided me with useful information (especially links and forms that promote my understanding and progress). I look forward to speaking with Leslie weekly, as she's a great "sounding board" for my work stresses, and provides me practical actions to help me with my coping strategy and boost my skills. She reminds me to practice self-care and be mindful of my reactions to stress and conflict. She has provided me with excellent care throughout our journey. I highly recommend her to others struggling with reactionary eating and stress management.

Leslie is an amazing therapist. She makes it feel easy for me to open up to her and I also never feel judged. A therapy session with her is a safe space and I always feel so much later and more positive at the end of our videochat. You can tell she really cares at what she does. I would 100% recommend her.

Leslie is kind, caring, and supportive. She really hears me and listens. She identifies what my triggers are and how to cope. She gives informational sheets on specific issues you may be dealing with such as grief and self care to assist you when you need it. She is also flexible with scheduling appointments when you literally are in a life changing crisis. I appreciate Leslie and I would not want any other therapist during this time.
