As our lives continually evolve, so do we. We have gathered tools along this journey that have helped and shaped our behavior, coping skills, and formed our life perspectives. Some of the ways we may think and interpret the evolution of our lives may no longer work or support our thoughts and behavior about ourselves and the world around us.
Some of these thoughts and behaviors may be unkind and pose as barriers to seeing our best selves.

In life, there are “good” days and “today could have been better” days. We face challenges every day. Sometimes we breeze through the challenges but there are days when the challenges appear to breeze through us, knocking us down. I chose the counseling profession because of my desire to be that helping hand for those individuals who are struggling with life’s challenges.

I'm a Life Coach and Human Design Coach. Through my work, I’ve learned that healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken; it’s about reconnecting to what’s whole. At HolisticLeigh Healing, I guide others in managing stress, understanding their emotions, and nurturing relationships through compassion and mindfulness. I also draw inspiration from nature — the way a plant grows slowly, roots deeply, and reaches for light — as a reminder that growth takes patience and care.
My goal isn’t to lead people, but to walk beside them as they rediscover peace, purpose, and the strength already within them.

I provide counseling to children, teens and adults ranging from ages 5 to 105. I give support to help address issues like anxiety, behavior, grief, low self-esteem, social anxieties and coping skills through play-based, age-appropriate methods. For teenagers and adults, I still desire to use play-based therapy methods in our sessions, but sitting and talking is still very effective treatment. Whether you're seeking healing, personal growth, or a safe place to process life’s difficulties, I’m here to support you or your child in taking the next step.
