“Dr. Leslie Walters is superlatively THEE BEST THERAPIST I’ve had in my Life!!!!! I mean this in the most appropriate and professional client-clinician way possible- I absolutely LOVE AND ADORE this woman!!!!! Dr. Walters’ therapeutic approaches are so proficient and effective that at times, I’d want to abruptly end an active session in progress due to my intense experiences of more than 40 years of copious traumas. She is well-equipped and very knowledgeable in how to disintegrate the weeds of trauma and the thorns of emotional pain by their roots; which can get quite uncomfortable. Yet still, by the end of our session(s), Dr. Walters has fully validated my feelings and traumatic experiences so my emotional wounds will begin the processes of healing that I’ve always yearned for and needed.”

Getting to know Leslie Walters

With over 20 years of experience, I have realized that life situations happen when you least expect them. In times of death, divorce, financial issues, family relational problems, or any issue that brings about episodes of emotional unrest, I believe it is always best to reach out to someone who can assist with de-escalating fears, re-establishing hope, and providing encouragement to persevere during dark times. My primary goal is to help others face their challenges and fears and become the person they want to be through the development of lifelong coping skills, in an environment that is accepting and open to individualized thoughts and ideas. Through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques and other evidence-based practices, I assist those seeking a brand-new start to let go and accept their past so they can invest in their future. Earning my Doctorate of Education in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University, along with a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling and a Master of Science in Guidance and Counseling from Fort Valley State University, has provided me with the education to engage in expert counseling strategies. However, it has been my hands-on experience in helping others that has given me the emotional tools to help those take that first step toward a new beginning. Because of these experiences, my counseling practices are built upon a foundation of faith, hope, trust, perseverance, and the understanding that helping others is one of the greatest privileges of my life. I fully believe that “character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.” – Helen Keller
