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.

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.
