Lighter Living Counseling, LLC

I would recommend Sheilah to anyone who is looking to start therapy or moving to the area and looking for someone new. Sheilah has been instrumental for me as I have dealt with the grief of losing my husband. She has been able to listen, provide suggestions and help me through the various emotions that I have been struggling with. She is empathetic and understanding.

The process towards licensure can be very overwhelming at times however Sheilah’s style of supervision is not only supportive but eclectic! Sheilah has continuously provided me with a safe space during each session to process both personal and professional dilemmas. Most importantly, Sheilah strives to create an atmosphere of self reflection and growth as a professional in the social work field!

I would highly recommend Sheilah to anyone considering therapy. She is incredibly professional, but also relatable and easy to talk to. In the past, I’ve dealt with therapists that I didn’t feel were truly listening to me, but that is not the case with Sheilah. She not only listens, she is compassionate and gives helpful feedback. Seeking out therapy can be a very intimidating process, but she makes it comfortable and I look forward to every session.

I’ve had therapy with Sheilah Ledesma for the last 6 months now and it’s been a real lifesaver. I was very hesitant about therapy because I was worried that finding a suitable therapist for me would be difficult. Sheilah is an excellent listener and she has an amazing energy that lets you feel comfortable opening up to her. She also gives you practical exercises you can do throughout the week to help you get better. I’ve seen a vast improvement in myself over the past months thanks to her.

Sheila is a great therapist. She has been working with my teenage son to help him manage his anxiety. Sheila has helped him to settle into high school life after a rough start.
She is empathetic, compassionate, and flexible. She was there for us when we needed her. Her response time is excellent.
The thing I most appreciate from Sheila is how she collaborated with my husband and I to make sure our efforts were coordinated with her sessions.
I highly recommended Sheila!
