Getting to know Leonor Donayre

Hi there, I'm Leonor! I'm a bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have experience providing care across residential, inpatient, and outpatient settings, allowing me to support clients with a wide range of concerns and life experiences. I provide a warm, collaborative space where clients can safely explore their experiences, gain My focus I work with adults navigating childhood trauma, relationship trauma, attachment concerns, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. I also support clients processing racism, discrimination, and cultural identity while understanding how past experiences continue to shape the present and healthier relationships together. My approach My approach is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented. Together, we'll explore how childhood, relationships, attachment, and culture shape your relationships and daily life. We'll identify patterns and triggers, strengthen coping skills, and build tools to help you create a life that feels more aligned with your values and authentic self. My communication style I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and understood. My style is compassionate, direct, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when we build a trusting relationship where you feel comfortable exploring difficult experiences while also feeling supported. My journey to mental healthcare I immigrated to the U.S. as a teen, shaping my perspective as a bilingual English and Spanish therapist with a deep appreciation for culture, family, and life transitions. Working at an immigration law firm, I witnessed how trauma affected individuals and families, inspiring me to help clients process their experiences, heal, and feel empowered. My goals for you Healing looks different for everyone, so we'll work together to develop goals that reflect what matters most to you.
