A Compassionate Approach to Deep Healing
I’m Leslie Williams, and I’m here to help you navigate the path from surviving to thriving. My philosophy is simple: therapy is a collaborative partnership. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to provide the safety, tools, and guidance you need to access your own inner wisdom.
I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy. Every person’s story is unique, and your treatment should be too. I blend warmth and genuine curiosity with evidence-based clinical practices to create a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. Whether you are seeking anxiety therapy, support for depression, or trauma recovery, we will work together at a pace that feels safe for you.

Do You Feel Like You’re Just Surviving Instead of Thriving?
Life can often feel like a series of hurdles. Maybe you are carrying the weight of past trauma, struggling with anxiety that won't quiet down, or feeling a deep sense of disconnection from yourself and others. You might have tried to "push through" or ignore these feelings, hoping they would fade on their own, only to find them resurfacing when you least expect it.
It’s exhausting to feel like you are constantly fighting a battle within your own mind. The isolation of feeling misunderstood or "broken" can be heavy. But you don’t have to carry that weight alone. Healing is not about fixing what is broken; it is about uncovering the resilience and wholeness that has been there all along.
You don’t have to walk this path alone – I am here for you
My Approach and Experience
My passion for this work stems from a deep belief in the human capacity for change. Over the years, I have dedicated myself to extensive training in modalities that go beyond traditional talk therapy to address the root causes of suffering.
I specialize in:
-
A transformative model that helps you understand the different "parts" of yourself, fostering self-compassion and inner harmony.
-
A powerful tool for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional charge.
-
An approach that incorporates the body into the healing process, helping to release stored tension and regulate the nervous system.
-
Ensuring that safety and stabilization are the foundation of all our work together.
My background allows me to integrate these methods seamlessly, offering psychotherapy for depression and anxiety that addresses both the mind and the body. I am committed to staying at the forefront of therapeutic advancements to ensure you receive the highest quality care.
Therapy with me is...
01 Honest
02 Trustworthy
because without honesty we can not heal…
because without trust we can not heal…
03 introspective
because without introspection we can not heal…
04 Individualized
because without targeting your individual needs we can not heal…
05 non-judgemental
because with unconditional acceptance we CAN heal…
A Safe Space for healing
I understand that reaching out for help takes courage, and the decision to share your story is deeply personal. That’s why I am committed to making my practice a true sanctuary: one where you can show up exactly as you are, without fear of judgment or criticism. Your safety, both emotional and physical, is my top priority.
From the moment you walk through the door or join a session online, you will find an environment rooted in respect, confidentiality, and compassion. I actively foster a sense of comfort by being present, attentive, and attuned to your needs. We move at your pace, and you are always in control of the process; you never have to share more than you feel ready for.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I use approaches that prioritize your sense of safety and agency. Sessions are structured to create predictability, so you know what to expect and can relax into the work. I am mindful of triggers and ensure that you always have the tools and support you need to feel steady, whether we are navigating difficult emotions or celebrating personal growth.
Building trust is the foundation of healing. In our work together, all of your feelings and experiences are welcome. I encourage you to bring your whole self: the confident parts, the scared parts, the angry parts, and the hopeful parts. Every part of you will be met with warmth and acceptance, every step of the way.
