Mrs. Leslie Berumen, Therapist

Leslie is particularly passionate about treating children and adolescents with behavioral issues, school avoidance, and anxiety. Through a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, she works closely with families to develop effective coping strategies and improve communication. Her experience in addressing gender identity issues and supporting individuals with developmental disabilities and autism spectrum disorders adds depth to her practice, allowing her to cater to a wide range of unique needs.

In her practice, Leslie tailors her therapeutic approach to fit each client’s specific situation, often integrating family therapy to promote a holistic healing process. She is especially skilled in helping women navigate personal challenges, including those related to gender identity and life transitions. With her expertise in family dynamics, Leslie ensures that each member is heard and involved in the therapeutic process, fostering long-lasting emotional resilience.

Outside of her clinical work, Leslie enjoys painting, gardening, and running, pursuits that reflect her dedication to mindfulness and balance in both her personal and professional life.
