Leslie Tourish is a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor who values the unique journey of each individual she works with. Offering telehealth sessions, her mission is to partner with clients to develop tailored solutions that cater to their specific needs. Leslie firmly believes that the true opposite of depression is resilience, rather than mere happiness, and she is committed to guiding clients through explorations of depression, anxiety, or shame that often stem from trauma. Her approach involves a collaborative therapeutic process that focuses on individualization, allowing clients to discover new ways of thinking and behaving, which are essential for meaningful change. As a specialist in EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Leslie effectively supports individuals dealing with challenges such as post-traumatic stress, panic attacks, grief, and anxiety disorders among others. With a background as a former photojournalist, she possesses a unique ability to connect with creative individuals in the visual and written arts. Leslie provides a safe space for creatives who feel blocked, empowering them to transform their aspirations into reality through intentional choices and changes.
