Leigh Williams, LPC — Therapist in Colorado

Hi there, I'm Leigh!

I work with preteens, teenagers, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. I also support those needing executive functioning help, emotional self-regulation, and interpersonal relationship skill building. Additionally, I treat adult victims of racial discrimination and racial trauma.

My focus

I have extensive experience with gifted individuals and those with disabilities. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationship difficulty, emotional dysregulation, poor stress management, and executive functioning problems.

My approach

I integrate techniques from CBT, DBT, ACT, and art therapy into treatment, tailoring my approach to meet your unique needs and support your growth.

My communication style

My focus is to develop a transformative relationship where you can reclaim well-being with affirmation and acceptance.

My journey to mental healthcare

I enjoy supporting individuals in reaching their full potential and achieving whole well-being. Mental health is my calling, and I am passionate about this work.

My goals for you

I collaboratively work with you using an ACT framework to examine whether your goals align with your values, beliefs, and identity.

Our first session

I take time to carefully listen to your story and understand your needs, desires, and reasons for therapy. I want to learn about your history and build rapport. Therapy is about relationships and connection, so I create a safe space where you can begin to heal. I will be with you every step of the way.
