Hi, I’m Leslie, a licensed clinical psychologist.

And I believe that deep healing and lasting change start by turning inward.

Rooted in authentic care

I invite you to bring all that you’re carrying into a grounding environment where you can be fully yourself. My approach is warm, calm, and curious—not to “fix” you, but to understand your experience together, at your pace. Therapy with me is a space to reflect, process what matters most, and grow through understanding the forces that shape your life and discovering what helps you thrive.

My approach

I practice from a relational, attachment-based lens, exploring beyond surface-level symptoms to understand how early patterns and relationships shape your present life. I also draw from family systems, narrative, and trauma-informed approaches, helping you recognize the influences that have shaped your patterns and practice new ways of relating and responding. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, neurodivergence, or feeling stuck, our work can help you make sense of your story and move toward greater clarity, agency, and purpose.

My background as a yoga teacher and meditation practitioner informs a spacious, intentional, and embodied style of therapy. I also believe in the healing role of humor—it can bring relief, perspective, and connection even in difficult moments.

In the therapy room

Patients often describe me as intuitive, engaged, and gently direct. I bring my full presence to each session—listening deeply, highlighting connections you may have missed, and helping you explore new ways forward. Together, we explore patterns with compassion, honor progress, and stay open to what’s challenging. Our work is collaborative and insight-driven, helping you understand yourself more deeply and take meaningful steps toward lasting change.

Education and training

I earned my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.) from The Wright Institute in Berkeley, California, and B.A.s in Psychology and Spanish from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. My clinical training spans the Bay Area, Chicagoland, and Boulder, across community clinics, private practices, and school settings. These diverse experiences allow me to meet each person where they are and help them move forward with clarity and agency.

Outside of the office

You might find me circling the Boulder Trader Joe’s parking lot, riding the Super Bee at Copper Mountain, or chasing my partner up Royal Arch Trail in Chautauqua.
