LeANNE PLEASANT, MSW, LCSW
As a seasoned therapist, I am passionate about assisting each of my clients to fully occupy their lives in the healthy and rewarding manner they desire. Depression, anxiety, grief, stress, life stage challenges or the quest for clarity and meaning are experienced by most of us at one or more points in our lives. For the last 18 years, my focus, education, and experience has been with adults, in private practice. I combine the best of Western and Eastern Psychology to help clients achieve their particular goals. To round out my clinical education, I began to study the more holistic Eastern Psychology practices. This led me to become a LifeForce Yoga ™ Instructor in 2010 and to subsequently earn a Certificate in Mindful Awareness Therapies from UC San Diego School of Medicine in 2013. I practiced and studied the history and art of Buddhist meditation with my Teacher at the Mahasukha Center in Los Angeles. Previously, I worked in various public and private sectors of the Mental Health field ranging from at-risk youth to frail elderly adults. I am fortunate to bring the depth and breadth of all my experience in working with my clients today.
