WHAT CLIENTS SAY

I get it—choosing a therapist is a big decision. You want someone who knows what they’re doing, understands what you’re going through, can tailor their approach to you, and can actually help you get past these hurdles—all while feeling like a good fit. Here’s what some of my past patients have shared. To protect confidentiality, I have left out their names.
Want to experience this yourself? I'm here when you need me.
“She immediately identified the patterns that characterized my condition and guided me through targeted exposures with warmth and structure. I have never once felt judged or misunderstood in our sessions.”
“With Dr. Leyva's support and guidance, I was able to get on planes without the extreme panic I’d felt for decades. I now live a values-driven life instead of a fear-based one.”
“She helped ease the panic and anxiety attacks I’d never experienced before and guided me to the root of my problems. I’m now doing much better.”
“Working with Dr. Leyva gave me perspective and helped me feel hopeful about my life instead of controlled by anxiety. I’ve seen benefits in both my personal and professional relationships.”
“I used to say yes to everyone and everything, even when it left me drained and resentful. In therapy with Dr. Leyva, I learned how to set boundaries without feeling guilty and started recognizing the relationship patterns that were hurting my confidence. She helped me challenge the negative self-talk that had been running in the background for years. Now I feel more secure in myself and surround myself with people who respect and value me.”
“She genuinely cares about every aspect of who you are and helps you see the bigger picture. I’m more self-aware today because of our work together.”
“Dr. Leyva balances real warmth with a structured, systematic approach that truly improved my life. Her perceptive questions and clear strategies made all the difference.”
“I avoided highways and overpasses for years, planning my life around routes that felt ‘safe.’ Working with Dr. Leyva, we started small and gradually built up to longer drives, even tackling the freeway together. She stayed calm and supportive when my anxiety spiked, and gave me tools I still use today. Now I can get in my car and go wherever I need to without fear dictating the route.”
