meet the team

Bienvenidxs, I’m Lesllie!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, supervised by Fabiola Williams LPC-Supervisor. If you’re here, you might be carrying more than you’d like—anxiety, burnout, grief, parenting stress, or questions about identity and self-worth can weigh heavily on anyone. Maybe you’re searching for a place to breathe, reconnect, and find hope. You don’t have to navigate this alone.

I’m a bilingual therapist (English/Spanish), originally from Mexico and raised in Houston, Texas, with a master’s degree in clinical Mental Health Counseling. My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, culturally aware care—and for those who desire it, I also offer faith-based Christian counseling for those who request it. Whether you want to explore how your faith intersects with your struggles or simply need a supportive space, I’m here to meet you where you are.

We often think of trauma as something that happens “out there”—a major event or crisis—but trauma can be any experience that overwhelms your ability to cope and leaves a lasting impact on how you see yourself, others, or the world. It might show up as anxiety, feeling stuck, or a sense of disconnection. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a therapy designed to help you process and heal from painful or traumatic experiences. I also incorporate somatic exercises—practices that help you reconnect with your body and safely release stress or tension that trauma can hold—alongside mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). My approach always honors your culture, background, and lived experience.

Whether you’re seeking support virtually or in person, I offer a safe, trauma-informed space where your story matters. Therapy with me is about feeling seen, supported, and empowered, no matter where you are in your journey. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’m here to walk alongside you and help you move forward with compassion and hope.
