Leila is a psychologist who particularly enjoys working with children and young people. She focuses on their personal strengths, personality and developmental stage, tailoring her approach to their individual needs. She aims to help young people to feel better, stronger and more empowered. One of her strengths is her ability to create genuine connections with people so that therapeutic change can happen.

“When we see the person we are working with as more than just their problem, and we believe in their capacity to change, it is only then that they can be the change they need in their own lives.”
