Great to meet you!

I’m Lesley(She/Her)- an LMHC with a passion for building meaningful relationships with my clients.After working 5 years at BU as the LGBTQIA+ specialist, I’ve learned how hard it is to find a therapist that feels like the right fit.If you made it to my page, welcome and hope it wasn’t too hard getting here.I can't guarantee that I'll be the right fit but I can let you know about the services I have to offer, my work, and my approach.If it sounds like a good fit to you, feel free to reach out!

My approach to therapy

I provide psychotherapy to young adults and adults navigating a broad range of challenges. My trauma informed and multicultural focus in treatment is understanding you as a whole person. I believe this includes many domains of life including family, social, career/academic, intimate relationships, spirituality and more.


I specialize in working with BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals as well as trauma history, relationship issues, undergraduate and graduate school issues and career counseling.

What you can expect from me

I see therapy as a collaborative process where we can work together to develop a clear understanding of your concern, explore what changes are possible, provide you with psychoeducation and specific skills, and closely monitor your progress toward your goals.


I offer a safe, inclusive and judgement free space to open up and work through areas of your life where you may feel you need help and I utilize an approach that is catered to your needs.
