Leila Benoit

Before becoming a therapist, I worked as both an educator and hospital social worker, giving me firsthand insight into the pressures and challenges that often accompany helping professions. In addition to my clinical experience, I've spent many years serving in Christian ministry, an experience that continues to shape the compassion, perspective, and care that I bring to my work. As a therapist, I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, and life transitions.

I believe meaningful change happens when people feel truly seen, supported, and empowered.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. Using CBT and EMDR, we'll work together to better understand your experiences, develop healthier patterns, and build practical skills that foster lasting healing and growth. For those who desire it, Christian faith can be thoughtfully integrated into the therapy process.

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know one another. I'll listen to your story, learn what has brought you to therapy, and explore the goals that matter most to you. Together, we'll begin developing a personalized plan that feels realistic, collaborative, and focused on helping you move forward at a pace that feels right for you.
