Leslie A. Palmer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
(TX LCSW 38664)
As someone who has worked (and continues to grow) through my own anxiety and fears, I have experienced the limits that worry can create in life.
Anxiety has stopped me from trying new things, from meeting new people and from being truly present in my life.
Learning and practicing effective skills has had a major impact in my life.
Being able to help others understand the why of anxiety (hint: our brains can be overly helpful) and teaching skills and tools to move beyond anxiety has been the most rewarding part of my professional career. My hope is that we can work together to co-create an action plan that allows you to
move towards being the best, and most fulfilled, version of yourself.
​I have had the honor to work with children, teens, families and adults in pursuit of emotional health and fulfillment for over 20 years as a school counselor, an adoption work, and a therapist. I love to learn and have pursued advanced education in yoga, play therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I bring all of these skills and experiences together to co-create an effective plan to meet your unique needs.
I'm honored and excited to use my skills, experience and talents to help you move beyond your struggles with anxiety towards a more joy filled life.
I am committed to providing a nurturing space to support positive learning, growing and thriving.
