As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I am passionate about my profession and committed to helping clients achieve their personal goals. My expertise includes working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and general life stressors. I work with adolescents, adults, and families, and I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, where our relationship is a partnership in the journey toward positive change.
I take pride in making my therapeutic sessions both informative and engaging. Former clients often mention that I leave them with a "Lesleyism"—a practical coping skill or therapeutic technique they can immediately apply to improve their symptoms and foster positive change.
At Lifebulb our clients get the highest quality therapy services because we're building an organization that truly allows therapists to get back to enjoying their work. We offer flexible hours, both in-person and telehealth, accept most major insurances, and hire only licensed providers. Visit our website to book online or call us now. We're ready to help!
