Great to meet you!

My name is Teryn Leaper, I'm originally from the east coast and have slowly made my way to the west. Throughout that time I've been through many different transitions. From schools, jobs, culture shocks, and different phases of life, I've had to learn to adapt as effectively as possible. And that is what Aboveboard therapy is about, making what is scary and inevitable a bit more bearable.

My approach to therapy

With my clients I like to initially start with an Adlerian and Feminist approach. This means identifying roles that clients plays in there family structure that they could be playing out in other aspects of their life. I also like to observe how the client is affected both locally and globally and how those structures play apart of there circumstances.

What you can expect from me

I believe that clients have their own ideas about what healing for them looks like. They can expect to be supported while working toward the changes in there life that they want to make.
