Leila is an incredibly compassionate and caring individual. She genuinely seeks to understand the root of your pain and collaborates with you patiently and graciously to find and test solutions. During my session with her, I confronted long-held resentment and trauma. Leila lovingly guided me through techniques to release tension from my body and helped me feel comfortable and safe in expressing my emotions-good and the ugly. Although it was only one session and one session alone isn't a cure-all, it marked a significant turning point in my healing journey. I highly recommend booking with her. She is deeply passionate about her work and strives to provide you with everyday tools to help you feel your best.

I have had the privilege and honor to work with and know Leila for the past two years. She is truly a gift to this world. Her ability to support deep trauma work through her innate wisdom but with genuine lightness and humor is truly unique. I felt seen, heard, understood and deeply supported while working with her. The depth of knowledge she has from her own personal life experience and countless hours of training in trauma-attuned modalities makes her an incredible resource and facilitator. She has had a profound impact on my life in the most positive and healing ways. To me she is so over qualified to help others more than those with so many degrees because of her innate wisdom and life experience. She is a gift to this world and anyone who has the opportunity to work with Leila is truly blessed.

The energy and the safety, which is at the top of my list was present with so many levels. To not really know you but be able to trust you enough to go deep with a vulnerable childhood part, dancing, and sharing stories. And I think that you’ve got such an elegant way of combining your personality and the intellectual side of things. I have been down the rabbit whole of courses and mostly it feels like I could have learned that myself. With you it feels very much worth whatever investment people would be paying you. And I just feel good, and that’s everything - I feel connected, I feel safe, and I feel supported.

Wow, where do I even begin???!! My session with Leila was pretty transformational!!! If you are looking to work with someone who has the experience and training and ability to hold space for you through using multiple modalities, Leila is your coach! We began our session with grounding and moved into Partswork work next. I got really emotional and cried, which I wasn’t expecting because I was not feeling sad, but clearly my body and mind felt safe enough to go deep with Leila and clear out some old beliefs and create a space of safety from within. I fully trusted her to support me, and she just did an incredible job of holding space for me and allowing me to move through the exercises. It was amazing getting to know about her and her training and personal experience which made me connect with her even more. I knew she “got it” because she has done the work herself. Her energy is gentle and playful and just so, so GOOD! Her smile is welcoming and you can feel her willingness to be able to guide you. We ended the session with some somatic movement and dance, and I have actually never done that in a 1:1 session before. Again, I felt so safe and free to express myself with Leila, so I did not hesitate when she asked if I wanted to do that! It felt good to be seen and heard and witnessed by her. It felt good to laugh and cry and just be able to express myself in our session. Thank you so much, Leila. You are a gift to us!

I recently had my first session with Leila, she uses trauma-attuned care combined with somatic modalities, and from the moment I walked in, I felt incredibly safe and supported. Her approach made me feel seen and understood on a deep level. As someone new to this form of therapy, I was amazed at how effective it was. Throughout the session, my body experienced significant release, which was both surprising and healing. Leila has the remarkable ability to create a space where deep healing can occur, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a therapeutic approach that addresses both the mind and body. The session was transformative, and I am grateful for the positive impact it had on my well-being.

I had an incredible session with Leila. She walked me through her signature method, and I’m a really active person so I’m in tuned with my body in a very physical sense but not so much when it comes to my emotions in a physical sense. She was so easily able to help me drop into my body, and I was shocked and amazed that some of the stories that came up to the surface - that I was able to be in a witness perspective and see a story or an event and move through it without being triggered by the emotions. It was the first time that I had experienced this story or past belief of mine from this different perspective. In the moment I was like “Oh that’s not how it is - it’s this way.” At the end of our session she asked “what came up for you?”, and I explained what happened and was like this is amazing! I didn’t really realize that was what we were doing! I just got so in tuned with this story and was able to move through and it was so freeing and so releasing. I just felt so good afterwards. It was really incredible how powerful her experiences were that she could take me through that and drop me in right away to this space I’ve almost never been before. It was really really cool! I would highly recommend her if you’re on the fence take the leap - you won’t regret it.

When I first started my session I had severe pain in the right side of my neck & right shoulder. It was so bad that it was interrupting my sleep. After my session with Leila I was pain free!!! I went to my chiropractor for an adjustment after our session & it was the first time I haven’t needed a neck adjustment! My chiropractor also said my posture and back were much straighter. Working with Leila is profoundly insightful!! Her ability to hold space is so nurturing & inviting. I loved that she simply & quietly listened to my story of my traumatic hospital stay & its horrific effects on my life. Leila is deeply empathetic. She graciously checked in with me throughout our session to ensure I was not overwhelmed. During my process she held space for me to navigate the somatic process the way my body saw fit, without any interruptions. I was in complete shock as to what came forward in visualizations & body movements! I attribute it all to the safe space that was created & held by Leila.

My session with Leila was absolutely AMAZING! It felt super intuitive and was exactly what I needed at this time. She reflected some things back to me when we talked at the beginning of the session that led to big realizations for me, and I had this a-ha moment. She made me see how I'm standing in my own way and creating my own "stuckness", and how I can simply choose a new way of doing things for myself. Leila also created a safe space that made me feel like whatever comes up is welcome — we talked, moved, journaled, and she guided me through some exercises I really enjoyed. I also loved the simple practices she recommended to me. After doing them even just a couple times after the session, I'm already feeling how they're serving and supporting me. I gained so much clarity on my path forward, and I'm really excited and motivated to get started and make some shifts in my daily life based on what came though during our session!

You truly hold the container. I love that you didn’t tell me exactly what to do because I have had practitioners do that. I love that you’re like I’m gonna give you examples and do what you’re called. I loved how in tuned you were in the process of just letting me be. You are such a gift Leila. People need you in the world. You do such a beautiful thing of holding a masculine and feminine space, and you were like here’s the structure of what to physically do but make it your own. And then that feminine space of just letting me flow in it. I was in my head of am I doing it right, and your pure silence was so nourishing in that and so validating. Basically I would like to keep you in a little box with me everywhere I go!
