Leslie has been very helpful. She’s understanding, has a lot of great expertise, has offered a lot of good solutions/techniques/books etc… and challenges me in ways I appreciate. She’s also worked with me as far as scheduling goes and was available for an “emergency session” when I needed it. I’m very grateful to work with her.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in California with over 10 years of experience working with families and couples, as both an educator and therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including relationship issues, breakups, commitment issues, blended family issues, communication problems, co-dependency, parenting concerns, divorce/separation and family conflicts in a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment. As you can imagine, relationships and how we connect with each other is my passion! I am here to help you navigate the relationships in your life.
I believe that participating in therapy can result in many benefits, including a better understanding of your personal goals and values, improved relationships, and resolution of the concerns that led you to seek therapy. My hope is that with sensitivity and compassion, I can help you identify strengths, as well as find solutions to a wide range of psychological issues. Taking a holistic approach to therapy, I am concerned with the long-term well-being of the individual.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
