“I found this practice online while searching for support because my therapist is currently on medical leave. From the very beginning of meeting Leonice, she was incredibly warm, welcoming, and inviting. She quickly helped create a comfortable space and got straight to understanding why I was there. During our session, we were able to discuss practical solutions and strategies that were very helpful. I left the meeting feeling heard, supported, and encouraged. I truly appreciated how focused and productive the session was. I absolutely loved the experience and am grateful to have connected with someone who is both compassionate and solution-oriented.”

Getting to know Leonice Ferreira

Hi! I am Leonice, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Cambridge College in 2016 while working in a shelter for survivors of domestic violence. Over the years, I have also supported parents feeling overwhelmed and stressed. I have worked with people at various stages of life dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and other challenges, providing a safe and non-judgmental space for exploration, healing, and growth.

Leonice Ferreira, LMHC has 200+ in-network plans.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Ms. Leonice was very welcoming and warming to meet. I instantly felt comfortable to open up and share some things about myself and my life that are rather difficult to talk about at times. I felt connected to her and feel like she is the right person to guide me to a better place in my mind and heart!

This was my first therapy session and I was nervous going into it but Leonice made me feel very comfortable to talk to her about everything. She was patient and professional and an excellent listener. She gave incredible advice and I felt safe speaking to her. This was the first time that I felt my feelings and thoughts were being heard and understood. It was an amazing experience.

Very good communicator and listened to help me
Verified patientVideo visit
I've been trying therapy on and off for the past 10+ years with different providers and have to say that I have never felt as seen and validated as I have with Leonice. Not only does she listen, but she provides valuable feedback to actually help me move forward with my concerns, rather than letting my thoughts sit in the air in silence like previous therapists have done. I never really write reviews, but I've gotten more out of two sessions with Leonice than I have in the last 10 years of therapy combined, so I knew I had to. 100% recommend!

I absolutely love Leonice! I was always hesitant about virtual therapy but Leonice and I had an instant connection. I am so grateful to have found my perfect match on the first try. She’s very understanding, supportive, and helps me navigate through life. She also challenges me when I think I don’t have anything to talk about. I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist.
Amazing experience!

Super professional, personal, and really dug deep for the first meeting. Left me feeling better and with strategies to implement prior to our next meeting. Looking forward to my next appointment already!
