Leslie is the breath of fresh air every traumatized, jaded person like me needs! I have past experiences with therapists, some good, some awful. But right away I felt so safe and comfortable to unpack. My second session I felt I was holding my distance a bit, yet Leslie was patient and kind. Even complimented my kids and how cute they were when they interrupted us!!

This has been helping me so much! I have been referencing the videos that was suggested to me and given a understanding and the tools to handle stress when it happens, following that I get to talk to an amazing therapist who absolutely gets it. I’m really glad I got this!

Leslie, listens and helps to guide you what type of therapy you need, allows you to reach out anytime outside therapy. Provides tools to start helping you right away. She is empathetic and also has a sense of humor that can make you see the lighter side of your situation.

Leslie has been wonderful! A therapist full of personality and care. Very knowledgeable in multiple facets of mental health. She’s just been a joy to talk to and her help has been immense already. I’m very thankful that I was paired up with Leslie.

Leslie has been great. I really appreciate the feedback and help I've received about our discussions. I was originally worried that I would have to talk about my childhood a lot but no. We talk about current situations that I've experienced and I'm definitely grateful for that.

Leslie is a joy to work with and very good at making me feel comfortable sharing my thoughts and feelings that i need to work through. It is incredible to see someone who has experience and expertise on both lgbt issues and trauma counseling available for me! I am very happy we got matched.

Leslie has given me work sheets in the better help app. She reads my journal entries. She is supportive and lets me drive the therapy but also brings her expertise to the conversation.
Written on Feb 10, 2023 after therapy with Leslie for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and anger management
Leslie is more than I could have hoped for! One of my biggest concerns in starting therapy was that I wouldn’t jive with my therapist but I feel like she’s my perfect match! She hears me, understands me, is real, approachable, and provides tools to help keep me on track throughout the week. I can’t wait to continue working with Leslie and look forward to our sessions. Thanks better help!
