About me

I enjoy working with couples and families to help them communicate better and resolve interpersonal conflict in a healthy way. I'm a certified Prepare-Enrich marital/premarital counselor. I am a systemic family therapist, who examines all dimensions of my clients' lives - biological, psychological, relational, and social - to help them grow in a positive way. I am also trained in Gottman couples therapy and I practice from an Imago/Attachment-informed perspective.

As a therapist, I am warm, empathetic, and understanding. I believe that all thoughts, feelings, and behavior serve a purpose. My goal is to help clients identify their purpose and then work to find healthier, more constructive ways to accomplish that purpose. I believe every person is unique and I help each client self actualize their full potential.

I look forward to working with you on your mental health goals.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joseph Leonard. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Joseph is a great fit for my partner and I. He is very receptive to our conversations and provides us with useful materials. He never makes either one of us feel like he’s on anyones “side”. And he has been really helping us through our rough patch, as well as our transition to becoming a couple again and moving back in together.

Joseph has been absolutely wonderful as our therapist. This was our first time working with a therapist, so we weren't sure what to expect. However, I can honestly say getting couples therapy has been a brilliant decision.
My girlfriend and I talked about it for a while, and it's helped us become closer. For anyone thinking about getting couples therapy I would highly encourage it. Whether you're doing it as premarital counseling, or if you have issues with your partner, getting an objective, qualified "referee" to work with you both will help. To get the best results only two things are required: 1) you must be honest, and 2) you must be willing to commit to the process.
Further, the convenience of using Regain and doing everything online is very helpful to us. I have a very unusual work schedule, and Regain allows me to be able to make appointments, send Joseph messages, and journal too.
I recommend Regain to anyone who wants couples therapy and is new to it, if you have an odd schedule or if you're nervous about going to an office. I certainly would recommend Joseph as a couples therapist to anyone.

Work with me!
