ABOUT
Hi,
I'm Leona

And I have been described as an unorthodox therapist. My approach is a humanistic one – real, transparent and approachable. I am the therapist that will always tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear because I believe through honest communication and unyielding support, you can truly heal.
​
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology and the Founder of Knot Alone. My professional journey has shaped my belief that psychotherapy is not merely addressing problems and finding solutions, but rather it is about showing up for yourself and being curious. With that comes a deeper understanding of self, finding your voice in a world that can feel loud, meaning in your choices and your relationships, healing from emotional pain that can anchor you in your life, and discovering the power you have when you choose: acceptance or change.
​
My style is relaxed and I would like to hear about what has been going on in your life and how you’ve been experiencing it. I genuinely care to hear, see and understand you – in our work together, I am all in.
​
My work with you is best understood using the analogy of a puzzle. As we begin, we start off with an image or picture that is a little hazy, ideas of what you would like your life to look like. Together we will explore and examine the pieces of your puzzle that you choose to bring in, we will organize them in a way that works for you i.e. shapes, colours, corners, and/or grouping, and piece by piece I help you connect and create patterns. In our work together, your image will start to get clearer and with time you will learn to master skills and create your own connections towards healing.
​
I am a believer that the smallest discoveries can unlock and create lasting change.
