Hey There

IMG-20240906-WA0116_edited.jpg

Hey, I'm Leanne! I'm originally from the USA, but I've lived abroad since 2007 in various cities throughout Spain, China and Brazil.​ 

 

I know firsthand how incredible, but also how challenging living in a foreign country can be. It’s life changing in so many beautiful ways. I also know that navigating life’s natural struggles can be even harder when abroad if you don’t have the right social and emotional support. I know because I’ve been there. I’ve had the experience of trying to find a therapist as an expat. It seemed like one more thing that I just didn’t have the bandwidth to do, much less know where to start. That’s one of the many reasons I decided to pursue licensure in the states and become a professional mental health counselor.

 

I am currently licensed in Washington state and plan to obtain licenses in other states in the US. I hold degrees and certifications from universities and insitutes in various parts of the USA, Spain and England. I work with adults and couples both in-person and online. I create tailored support to each individual based on their needs, and have experience with a range of issues. ​​
