Leandi is a compassionate and dedicated counselor with over seven years of experience in the mental health field, specializing in trauma-informed care. She has worked with individuals across a broad spectrum of mental health concerns, with a focus on trauma, including domestic violence, sexual assault, and abuse. Her clinical expertise is built on evidence-based therapeutic modalities, and she is certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) (Certification Pending). As a mom who has personally navigated postpartum depression and anxiety, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my work.

Leandi grew up in South Africa, where she was exposed to a diverse range of cultural perspectives and experiences. Her travels have taken her to various countries, where she has encountered the pervasive stigma surrounding mental health. This exposure has deeply influenced her approach to therapy, as she believes that mental health care should be as normal and accessible as taking care of our physical and spiritual health. Our mental, emotional, and physical well-being are inextricably connected, and it’s essential to treat them all with the same level of care and attention.
