Christie Leonard

Using an approach to treatment that joins western psychology with the wisdom of eastern philosophy, I will help guide you through difficulties including—relationship issues, grief, life transitions, anxiety and depression—and assist you in transforming these challenges into opportunities for growth and learning. Led by the belief that people are the experts regarding their own lives, we will work together to examine your inner life without judgement and develop new skills for emotional resilience. Armed with these tools, you will begin to see that you already possess the power to make the changes you desire. In addition to being a therapist, I am also a registered yoga teacher. By weaving together techniques from yoga therapy—such as guided breathing and meditation—and traditional psychotherapy—including CBT, DBT, narrative and mindfulness—we will begin to increase your awareness and rediscover not only your sense of self, but of self-control. Whether this is your first experience with therapy, or you have been involved in therapy before, it is not always easy to reach out for help. I commend you for taking the first step in moving forward. We will work together to reach your goals that help you live your happiest, healthiest life. It is an honor to assist you in your journey of self-exploration.
