Hello, I am Lesa. Are you struggling with day-to-day life? Having a hard time dealing with relationships due to past traumas? Feeling like you are trapped in an exit-less room and can’t seem to make sense of it? I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience in trauma, depression, and anxiety. We will work together to identify mental health goals to accomplish, develop healthy coping skills, and build boundaries to protect and maintain your mental health. I will meet you where you are in life and used evidence-based methods and techniques to overcome and finally be mentally free. Let’s get to work!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we will talk about your goals in treatment, how your current mental health status impacts your daily routine, and work developing a treatment plan to meet your goals and needs.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

I utilized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma Informed Care, and Acceptance and Commitment methods during treatment.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have a wide array of knowledge from different age groups and experience from different life circumstances that allows me to relate and have a better understanding of where you are in life. I have worked with clients in early education, child-welfare, professional conflict, mental health crisis, medical fragility, longterm caregivers (caregiver fatigue), terminal illness, and end of life.

She is amazing! She is the first therapist I’ve worked with in 15+ years that I feel understands me and can actually help. I’m 100% sure she is going to help me out of my depression. I’m excited to continue working with her.
