A note from Leila

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Substance Abuse Counselor (CSAC) with 10 years of experience supporting individuals facing mental health and substance use challenges. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, build coping skills, and move toward healing. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I believe in working collaboratively and empowering you to create meaningful change in your life.
