“In the past my therapists have really only listened and validated my feelings but she is the first therapist I’ve had that actually helps me find solutions and tools that’s work for me. She’s just the right amount of compassion and tough love.”

“Not only is she really making me more self aware of my flaws, but she's actively giving me exercises & advice on how to address them, change them, and move forward. Without judgement either. She's makes everything very relatable. Leyla makes me think deeper about everything and actually gets down to the root/origin of the problem, not the superficial aspect of what we see on the surface, but the WHY. She's fantastic.”

Getting to know Leyla Jolivette
Hi there, I'm Leyla!
My name is Leyla Jolivette M.A., LMFT., APCC. I have a CBT-influenced educational background and for the most part, I use that theoretical orientation - however I do bring as many skills, theories, and training into any session so that I may walk with you on your journey to wellness.
My approach
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT, and Narrative Therapy. I am trained in EMDR, certified Grief Therapist and LGBTQ trained and supportive.
My focus
The majority of my focus is on a person that has come to the understanding that whatever is happening in life, where they experience challenges, they want to create change for themselves.
My communication style
I am a very down-to-earth, easy-to-speak-with person. At the end of a session, I want you to know there is someone listening to you, another human being that you connect with.
My journey to therapy
Part of my passion for becoming a therapist stemmed from my own experience going to counseling. I had an amazing journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and fulfillment in my life through that experience. I am now very passionate about providing the space for others to grow in a similar way.
My goals for you
Goal setting is a collaboration between the client and therapist. I give you ideas of what may be helpful, and you provide input on what is most important to you. Together we develop a plan that suits your wants and needs and allows me to do my work.
My first session with you
Clients can expect to be greeted with a smile, and a friendly, inviting demeanor. Your first session will include giving you the necessary information (going over disclosures, rights, and responsibilities). We will discuss some of the symptoms or identify challenges. I will also check in with you to address any questions or concerns you may have. When we are ready to end the session - I will ask if this is a good match for us based on all the information presented.
