Getting to know Leila McCauley

Hi there, I'm Leila! Hello and thanks for your time, attention, and ultimately your courage and commitment to healing. We all need a little help sometimes. For nearly 20 years, I've been a therapeutic guide for my clients, often facilitating profound change and forward movement resulting in healthier, happier lives for themselves and those around them. My approach I am both a deep and heart-centered listener and an active and involved therapist. You'll usually leave with some type of homework if you're open to that... even if it's just observing some aspect of your life more closely and reporting back on it. I am a "trauma-informed" therapist, and that means we do look at some original 'wounds' and apply healing to those in order to modify patterns that may not be serving you anymore. We work to understand and identify what's not working and change behaviors, thoughts, emotions, and habits toward a healthier way of living. Ultimately, I support you in learning how to utilize everything for your growth and upliftment, and above all, to have a better relationship with yourself along the way. I utilize an array of interventions and modalities to do this, including Spiritual Psychology, EMDR, CBT, Parts Work, Brain and Neuroscience, and Polyvagal methods. My focus Is it finally time to focus on you and your mental/emotional health and wellbeing? To heal those old wounds and free yourself up for a more vibrant and fulfilled life? If so, let's put the work in to do this. It's time to release patterns of anxiety, depression, negative self-talk, and fear. I can help you with guided processes, non-judgmental support, and a roadmap that works best for you. Sometimes the map includes EMDR techniques for unresolved trauma, phobias, or fears. Sometimes it includes working with your nervous system and learning how to slow down, comfort and coach yourself, and handle whatever situation comes your way.
