Gentle.

“Sometimes in life we are thrown challenges.  These challenges are often so painful they are debilitating.  Or at times, we just ignore them and hope will all of our being that they will go away.  But the truth is the pain does not go away and the challenges (and problems) keep coming our way.  That was my truth.  Until I knew I needed help. 

Until I discovered Leslie Roberts, LCSW.  With Leslie’s skilled guidance and gentle approach I was able to learn what mattered to me.  I was able to begin my healing.  I was able to begin to trust again.  Well trained and compassionate therapists are not easy to find.  I was grateful to have found her.”

Compassion

“Leslie immediately projects warmth and compassion, making her approachable and easy to talk to. Her communication style is open, honest, and judgement-free. She is easy to communicate with and works from a place of deep empathy. Leslie maintains the highest level of professionalism in seeing her clients as individuals and finding tactics/skills/strategies that work best for them.” 

Well Prepared.

“As a woman of color not every therapist can understand how to deal with race, class and privilege and she understood each of these issues from a place of social justice.  We need therapists who are willing to tackle the most complex of issues with us.  Leslie was well prepared and never lost sight of what mattered most to me.”

Enormous Resource.

“Leslie has been an enormous resource in helping me navigate loss. Her immediate warmth was so welcoming and made our sessions highly productive. She maintains a high level of professionalism in a judgment-free context. I felt like she saw me as an individual, unique to my journey, and came from a place of deep empathy. She listened to me cry and helped me find humor in life again. Most of all, Leslie wanted to see me succeed and provided the skills necessary to help me process my loss in a healthy way.”
