Leo Lease
Introduction
Hey, I’m Leo, a licensed clinical professional counselor and founder of Lease Therapy Collective. I have been in the field for over 10 years and center my work around folks navigating BPD and other personality disorders, complex trauma, neurodiversity, chronic illness, and identity exploration, including gender-affirming care. I have experience working with kiddos, teens, adults and families and would be honored to get to be a support! My style is warm, collaborative, and straightforward, with care. With me, you can expect a non-judgmental, shame-reductive space where you don’t have to perform or clean things up to be understood. I see your struggles in the context of your history, identities, and environment-not as personal failures. I use DBT-informed, art therapy and relational approaches to help you build practical skills, understand your emotions, and feel more grounded in who you are. I care a lot about accountability, but never at the expense of compassion: we’ll be honest about what isn’t working in your life while always honoring the “why” behind it. Together, we’ll work on building empathy-for yourself and others-so you can improve your relationships, set clearer boundaries, and grow a steadier, more authentic sense of self.
