Paula Leonardo, LMHC, NCC
You're not meant to figure everything out alone. Whether you're navigating the pain of grief, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, facing relationship challenges, or struggling with life transitions, I provide a safe, supportive space to explore your experiences and move toward healing and clarity.I use a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to therapy. I primarily work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) framework, which helps clients recognize and shift unhelpful patterns in their thoughts and behaviors. Together, we identify the root of your challenges, build coping skills, and develop strategies for lasting change. I integrate techniques tailored to your needs—whether you're working through loss, adjusting to a major life change, managing stress or emotional fatigue, or seeking deeper self-awareness in your relationships.
