Leeann makes me feel like I'm talking to someone who genuinely cares about how I'm doing. She listens at the right times and makes me really think about the why behind things. She very friendly, easy to talk to and very supportive in the learning process of myself. I've only had 2 sessions so far and already learned new things about myself that I hadn't been able to get insight to before.

I’ve only had one session with Leeann, but it was an incredible one. She helped me realize that I have unresolved issues from my childhood, and to not throw a new and healthy relationship away—my MO.. For the first time in my life, I have almost no anxiety being in a relationship.. I never thought therapy could work for me. Thank you so much!
