Leslie Martinez-Cisneros

¡Hola! Welcome! I'm Leslie and I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective therapy to people of color. I help people stay grounded, resilient, and connected to themselves even when the world feels heavy, uncertain, or overwhelming.

As a first-gen, daughter of migrants, bilingual therapist, I bring a helpful perspective to the table, deeply understanding the cultural nuances that shape our lives.

My approach is warm, inviting, and collaborative. I believe in creating a safe space where you feel comfortable being yourself. Together, we’ll explore your thoughts and feelings, uncovering the strengths you already possess and building new skills to navigate life’s hurdles.

I believe therapy doesn’t have to be all serious business - we’ll share a laugh or two along the way!

• Decolonized and anti-oppressive frameworks which acknowledge the power and systemic structures that affect our mental health. Free the People, Free the Land.
• Cultural humility: Your unique experiences and background will be honored and respected throughout our work together.
• Coping strategies to manage stress and anxiety in your daily life.
• Improved communication skills to enhance your ability to express yourself clearly and effectively in your relationships.
• Greater self-awareness
• A sense of empowerment
