Working with Leya has been nothing short of transformative from day 1. Her guidance, support, and expertise have given me tools to live an empowered and joyful life. The initial phone consultation was both informative and incredibly compassionate. As a person who was reluctant to therapy Leya created a safe environment for me. Leya has helped me navigate various aspects of my life: Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Relationships, as well as other life stressors. Leya’s greatest talent may in fact be the ability to both support and challenge you in order to acheive your best life. Illuminate psychotherapy truly lives out Leya’s purpose which is to help you acheive your best self and give you the tools to navigate this life.

THE BEST EVER !!!We thought that we were “too young” to go to couples therapy, we aren’t even married so like is it appropriate to seek therapy? My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years ever since we were 14/15 & had been friends since 12 years old. Will the therapist think it’s a joke that A young couple wants therapy? I was worried of feeling judged or being talked to in a way that a parent would talk to their child. Plus, where do we look? How do we find someone who’s going to get us? Who can relate?COULDN’T BE MORE LUCKY TO HAVE FOUND & PICKED LEYA !She is very nice and her voice is very sweet. I feel like she is very easy to talk to and we’ve never felt like she’s judging us or parenting us when she gives us advice. She just seems to really understand us. She’s definitely not just “the therapist we go to said we have to do this” type of therapist lolShe makes herself very accessible through technology. Sending us reminders through google calendar and texts about our next session. She makes sure to remind us to reach out to her if we need to reschedule or anything like that. We usually pay her through Venmo which is very convenient (she takes credit cards and cash as well)I really love that she’s up to date with all the new stuff now a days. Like my mom doesn’t even know what Venmo is.I really love going to her office, it’s nicely decorated, comforting place. Nothing like I would expect a therapy office to look like lol I really love how her website is set up & most questions we had about starting, we could easily just find on there and navigate through it so it made it super easy to schedule a phone call with her later and not be so lost as to what to say.Her work ethic, her therapy, her location, her business side like the website and instagram, just everything is on point and up to date. LOVE HER!

Leya is very attentive, passionate, and caring. She always knows the right things to say. She creates a safe, and welcoming atmosphere for her sessions. I always call her when I have problems, and she is always there to hear me out, and give feedback when necessary. Definitely the best therapist I have ever had!

Thoughtful therapist who works beautifully with couples in relationship distress. Also works with trauma.
