Great to meet you!

I will ask you questions to understand exactly what is happening with you. For example, if you tell me, “Im anxious”, I won't assume what that means based upon my own beliefs, but rather I will be curious, ask questions and I will try to learn more about what that means to you. Let me help you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

The way I work, simply put, is all about you. It’s about your goals and what is important for you to achieve. Some describe me as “lovingly confrontational”. This means I will not only witness your growth process and encourage you; but I will also tell you whenever I feel you are preventing yourself from becoming the person you want to be.

​

I utilize our time together to build a relationship that ultimately serves to achieve your goals and create a happier, fuller life.

What you can expect from our first session

Together we will work collaboratively on aspects of your life you want to change, adapt or completely re-write. You are about to embark upon an exciting process.

Leandro's style is

Humorous
Open-minded
Affirming
