PLEASE FIND ME AT MY UPDATED WEBSITE: Â WWW.INNERCOMPASSLONDON.CA
With 17 years of experience as a social worker, Leanna brings a wealth of knowledge and skill to her work with individuals. She is dedicated to fostering a safe, inclusive and respectful space, and believes firmly that healing happens on the foundation of a trusting, authentic relationship. Leanna operates from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive perspective and is dedicated to continuing her education and scope in the areas of trauma, PTSD, addictions, and mental health. Recognizing that people from all backgrounds and walks of life have the right to mental and emotional well-being, Leanna believes that people are resilient in nature and innately possess the capacity to heal. In her practice, Leanna draws upon a number of modalities, including CBT, DBT, and EMDR, and uses a psychodynamic, attachment-based approach.
Outside of work, Leanna enjoys doing just about anything in nature. In particular, she can be found driving, hiking or canoeing to campsites around Ontario during the summer, or reading a good book under a pile of blankets during the colder months. She has a keen interest in music of all kinds and is never found too far from her dog, Sophie.
Leanna earned her Bachelor of Social Work degree in 2002 and her Master of Social Work degree from Kings University College at Western University in 2015. She is registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service workers.

WHAT IS PSYCHOTHERAPY?
Psychotherapy is a means of dealing with current and ongoing mental, emotional and relational concerns through conversation, as opposed to through medical intervention.
Psychotherapy can help reduce stress and anxiety, clarify goals, and heal from trauma, and is done in the context of a safe, therapeutic relationship.
