My name is Leisa Watkins, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist with specialties and credentialled in Eye Movement Desentization and Reprocessing therapy and Marital/Couples counseling. I am a trauma informed therapist who believes that trauma does not define a person, it determines our behavioral responses and therefore, it can be healed, and our responses can be altered to become healthier, productive, and lead to success in relationships and in life.
I enjoy working with couples dealing with past trauma, trust issues, communication strains, and parenting issues. I also enjoy working with dissociation, anxiety, depression, bipolar, grief, and life changes in both individuals and couples.
I prefer that my clients see me as nonjudmental, willing to sit with big emotions, open in communication, validating, and when desired, challenging of negative cognitions. I believe that connection is the primary requirement for a healthy and productive therapeutic alliance with my clients.
