Leigh Kwasny
As a licensed clinical psychologist in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, I am dedicated to providing evidence-based care to adolescents, emerging adults, and adults navigating a variety of challenges. My therapeutic approach focuses on creating a safe, compassionate, and culturally responsive environment where you can feel truly heard and supported. I tailor treatment to meet each person's unique needs, working together with you to foster meaningful, lasting change. I also collaborate with other professionals involved in your care and communicate with family members when you choose to include them in the process.
I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), two proven approaches that help individuals build practical coping skills, manage emotions, and develop healthier ways of thinking and acting. I also have advanced training in trauma-focused therapies and am certified in Prolonged Exposure Therapy, a specialized treatment for PTSD.
