Illuminate Psychotherapy, Inc.

"One of the best people I know. Leya is the picture perfect therapist and has given me so many tools to set me up for success in all emotional aspects. When I first became her patient I was so scared to even start but she never failed at creating a safe and comfortable space for me. Even the physical space she has is so comforting, it’s like a big hug sitting in that room. The atmosphere she creates makes it easy to exist, express yourself and let your walls down. Truly an expert in her craft. Her demeanor and articulation are unmatched in all aspects. I could not have asked for a more reliable, meaningful and impacting candidate to guide me through this rough transition in my life. The authenticity she brings to the table is not something you find everyday. I would suggest anyone and everyone to meet with her. Having her as an addition to my life is something I’m always going to keep close to me. And it goes to show how big of an impact she brings to the table. Her presence is definitely a present and I hope that my input can give someone else the nudge they need to seek out Therapy with Leya."

"Leya is the best therapist in the entire world. I've seen her for five and a half years and truly she has helped me grow to be the best person I could be. I was hopeless and a shell of a person when I first met her. I was too afraid to even say hi to the receptionist at the desk and would often isolate myself at home due to social anxiety. But now I can interact with people normally, have made lots of friends, and even have the courage and self confidence to be who I am. She has given me my life back and I can't thank her enough because I wouldn't be who I am today without her. I wanted a therapist who would give me homework each week and make me feel like I was actively changing for the better and she did just that! I now have all the tools to continue to live my best life."

"Working with Leya has been nothing short of transformative from day 1. Her guidance, support, and expertise have given me tools to live an empowered and joyful life. The initial phone consultation was both informative and incredibly compassionate. As a person who was reluctant to therapy Leya created a safe environment for me. Leya has helped me navigate various aspects of my life: Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Relationships, as well as other life stressors. Leya’s greatest talent may in fact be the ability to both support and challenge you in order to acheive your best life. Illuminate psychotherapy truly lives out Leya’s purpose which is to help you acheive your best self and give you the tools to navigate this life."

"THE BEST EVER !!! We thought that we were “too young” to go to couples therapy, we aren’t even married so like is it appropriate to seek therapy? My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years ever since we were 14/15 & had been friends since 12 years old. Will the therapist think it’s a joke that A young couple wants therapy? I was worried of feeling judged or being talked to in a way that a parent would talk to their child. Plus, where do we look? How do we find someone who’s going to get us? Who can relate? COULDN’T BE MORE LUCKY TO HAVE FOUND & PICKED LEYA ! She is very nice and her voice is very sweet. I feel like she is very easy to talk to and we’ve never felt like she’s judging us or parenting us when she gives us advice. She just seems to really understand us. She’s definitely not just “the therapist we go to said we have to do this” type of therapist lol She makes herself very accessible through technology. Sending us reminders through google calendar and texts about our next session. She makes sure to remind us to reach out to her if we need to reschedule or anything like that. We usually pay her through Venmo which is very convenient (she takes credit cards and cash as well)I really love that she’s up to date with all the new stuff now a days. Like my mom doesn’t even know what Venmo is. I really love going to her office, it’s nicely decorated, comforting place. Nothing like I would expect a therapy office to look like lol I really love how her website is set up & most questions we had about starting, we could easily just find on there and navigate through it so it made it super easy to schedule a phone call with her later and not be so lost as to what to say. Her work ethic, her therapy, her location, her business side like the website and instagram, just everything is on point and up to date. LOVE HER!"

"Leya is very attentive, passionate, and caring. She always knows the right things to say. She creates a safe, and welcoming atmosphere for her sessions. I always call her when I have problems, and she is always there to hear me out, and give feedback when necessary. Definitely the best therapist I have ever had!"
