Meet Leanne
I love being a psychologist because it allows me to make a meaningful impact on people's lives. The opportunity to help individuals navigate their challenges, overcome their struggles, and achieve personal growth is incredibly rewarding. Witnessing clients transform, gain insight, and develop resilience provides me with a deep sense of fulfillment. Every day presents new opportunities to learn and grow. The dynamic nature of psychology, coupled with the ability to continuously improve my skills and knowledge, keeps me passionate and motivated. Ultimately, being a psychologist allows me to contribute to the well-being of others, which is a privilege I deeply cherish.

Currently, I continue to advance my expertise in Affect-State Therapy.
