I had been looking for a therapist for a while and clicked immediately with Lesley at my first appointment. She is kind and compassionate but still professional at the same time. She was able to guide me to the root of the issues I was having and was never judgmental. My biggest take away from seeing her is she gave me the tools to recognize and resolve my problems. Lesley believed in me and I am forever grateful.

Lesley Timbol is truly a fabulous therapist. My first impression about her was that she is extremely pleasant and welcoming. Her demeanor put me at ease, especially because it was my first experience meeting with a therapist. Lesley is a patient listener, a strategic/practical thinker and most importantly possess clear communication and inter-personal skills. I was counselled effectively and have no hesitation recommending Lesley to anyone.
