Reviews
Leslie is amazing with kids and parents. She give actionable help and she is so easy to talk to. It does t feel like counseling - it feels like support. She is honestly concerned and invested - can’t recommend her enough.
Leslie is an incredible therapist; she is experienced, open minded, and I truly felt treated with unconditional positive regard!
I LOVE Leslie! She was so kind and understanding. She helped me get through my depressive episode and brought clarity to my thoughts. Highly recommend!
I've only had a couple of sessions with Leslie so far, but I've been very pleased with our interactions to this point. She is very clearly listening to what I say, and I am given questions or suggestions that are very relevant to the issues that we discuss. I'm very impressed and appreciate of her help.
She’s a great counselor. Would recommend for others.
She always checks in with me to see how I’m doing which I think is very kind and I appreciate her time and concern.
She is wonderful, experienced, personal, and present. I greatly appreciate her willingness to listen and relate to the issues I express. Thank you!
Leslie Has been great from the start. She finds a way to connect with you using her past experiences and sharing personal information in order to make you feel comfortable. She’s the best!
Leslie is a very good listener and is patient with me. I have had a lot of things I wanted to say for a long time and I haven’t found anyone willing to do it on an unbiased level. Leslie does that, with that said everything is not poor me she offers support through questions and statements that are understanding. I don’t feel like I’m being interrogated which is also a bonus.
Very helpful, so nice to have someone that's respectful and understanding of my faith and the situations that I go through. Very helpful and I've seen much improvement!
She is knowledgeable, personable and kind counselor who is great in connecting dots and finding patterns in one’s behavior. She is aware of immigration challenges and that helps with the process specially with the ones who have been in that track of life.
Oh em gee I love Leslie! She’s very professional and kind. She gives a different point of view which I find important, and you can tell she has experience in life and counseling/therapy because she gives great advice and has great analogies. Highly recommend.
Being new to therapy, Leslie has done a great job of making me comfortable and feel seen. Very attentive communication as well, in depth responses and nothing but support.
Leslie possesses the qualities I look for in a great therapist. She is attentive, insightful, open minded, personable, and compassionate.
We've only shared a few sessions but so far they've been valuable. Leslie has been supportive and creative and given me new ideas and perspectives.
