Hi I am Dr. Silvia Leija, and I’m truly honored that you’re here. Guiding others toward healing and self-discovery is both my purpose and my passion. I wholeheartedly believe that we all have the ability to heal ourselves. Sometimes, we just need a little guidance to tap into that power—this is where I can help.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I take a systemic and holistic approach to therapy—because problems are rarely created in isolation, and therefore should not be solved in isolation. Whether you’re facing a major life transition, navigating relationship challenges, or simply trying to reconnect with yourself, therapy offers a powerful space to heal through connection. 

If you’re feeling stuck or unsure where to start, know that you’re not alone. Whether it’s your first time in therapy or you’ve been here before, I’m here to walk you through the process. As someone who also goes to therapy (that’s right, therapist need therapist too), I understand how vulnerable it can feel, which is why I’m committed to creating a warm, safe, and judgment-free space where your voice is heard and needs are met.

I approach therapy with curiosity and compassion. I’ll ask thoughtful questions, share fresh perspectives and help you explore what’s working, what’s not, and what’s possible. The clients who thrive with me are those who are ready to challenge themselves, try new things, and face tough emotions head-on. Yes, therapy can be hard, but if you’re ready to put in the work, I promise it will be worth it. Everyone’s path is different, so I tailor my approach to fit your unique needs and goals. Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, which is why I offer a free 15-minute consultation—so you can get a sense of who I am and whether we’re a good fit to work together.
