I know what it’s like to go through life looking outside the self for validation and answers about what to do next. I am passionate about holding sacred space for people to connect more deeply with themselves to uncover anything that may be holding them back from inner peace. I utilize IFS therapy, or parts work, to guide my clients on a journey of uncovering parts of self that need to witnessed and unburdened to be reintegrated into Self. I also utilize mindfulness and somatic therapies in my practice, understanding that incorporating mind-body-spirit into the therapeutic process is integral to holistic healing. I am an empathetic and non-judgmental therapist who is passionate about holding space for people to connect to themselves. I understand that therapy is a collaborative process and adapt to meet the needs of each individual person. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, especially those who’ve experienced trauma and members of the LGBTQIA+ population. “The part of you that knows this to be true is your intuition. It has always been there. We have simply developed a habit of not listening to or trusting what it says. Being here today is a step in healing that broken trust within ourselves.” - Nicole LePera
