Hi! I’m Leslie-Ann, the Co-Founder of Kahle Therapy & Consulting Services. As a clinician I understand that finding the right “fit” is paramount. My goal is to provide a safe space for clients to develop their authentic selves, refocus, heal & gain coping skills that will improve their lives. I hold space for clients to safely unpack their experiences; with a focus on race & intersectionality. I offer holistic treatment, using customized modalities, to assist you on your wellness journey. Book a FREE 15 minute consult via https://kahletcsconsultscheduling.as.me/consult15
I focus on racialized & marginalized people that have historically & disproportionately faced barriers to mental wellness services. I also work to address the lack of engagement between the Black community & therapy. I share many of the unique values & sensibilities of my clients & offer a safe space for people to manage their emotional + mental wellness.
You’ve taken the first step! Be proud of yourself. This can be scary, overwhelming, liberating & life changing all at the same time. Sometimes a reassuring voice & unspoken understanding is all we need to face the challenges in our way. “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced” - James Baldwin.
