Leidy Martinez Bodre

Leidy Martinez Bodre

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 23 mi away • Gig Harbor, WA


¡Hola! I'm Leidy, a bilingual (English and Spanish) therapist. I work with adults navigating major life transitions, grief and loss, fertility issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, family transitions and more. Many of the people I work with are in the middle of something big, whether that's a loss, a shift in their family, a fertility journey, or simply a season of life that feels heavier than expected, and they're looking for a space where they can finally exhale.

I'm originally from the Dominican Republic, and Spanish is my first language. As an immigrant myself, I understand what it's like to navigate multiple worlds, identities, and expectations. I'm also the proud parent of a son with autism, so I know firsthand what it's like to walk through major life transitions, advocate for your family, and find strength you didn't know you had. These experiences shape the way I show up for my clients every day.

My background is rooted in community work. I spent years in non-profit organizations supporting diverse communities, and that experience taught me the importance of meeting people where they are, honoring their culture, language, strengths, and identities. I believe in creating individualized treatment plans that reflect the whole of who you are.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Olympia, WA

Searching for therapists in Olympia starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist background fits your needs. People often look for therapy in Olympia for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and training match what you want to focus on. Some bios may mention approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling, which can help you decide who may be a strong fit.

Olympia is a smaller city, so local office availability may vary across Downtown, Capitol Hill, Eastside, and nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping you connected with a therapist licensed in Washington. Consider practical details like appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking. Reading therapist profiles can also help you understand how they structure sessions, communicate, and describe their work with concerns like counseling, marriage counseling, relationship counseling, or couples therapy in Olympia, WA.

Therapy in Olympia can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, schedule, and insurance plan, with cost estimates shown upfront after you enter your insurance details. You can browse profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
