Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Leeann Peters. 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.
Leeann has been instrumental in providing insight, support as well as providing tools to inspire a pragmatic approach to processing emotions and work through trauma, depression and relationship challenges. Highly recommended.
LeeAnn is amazing. She is very patient with hearing all that I have to say and helping to be a guide to the answers that I need to hear. I look forward to each and every one of our meetings.
She's brilliant and gives the best advice! Keep up the good work!
We have been working with Leeanne for a year and she has been extremely helpful in many different areas of therapy. She has been vital in rebuilding relationships after conflict. She has helped save broken relationships and provided a space for healing and resolution. We appreciate her work in our lives and in the mental health profession.
Very insightful, compassionate, and helpful!
She's very polite and I know she's coming from a good place. I felt like there was a lack of note-taking because we almost did the same educational discussion on Day 2 as we did on Day 1. When my partner and I tried to open up about our relationship concerns we got cut off to discuss theory which had already been covered.
A good start and informative first session.
She is really great, she listens, she is super helpful. I really enjoy our sessions with her.
I’ve only been seeing her for a month but I feel like we are good with each-other and she has helped me a lot :)
Respectfully listens and gives me good feedback
Leeann is great. She listens and develops a customized/strategic approach to bettering your relationship. The progress so far has been highly valuable and there are concrete strides in our day to day. HIGHLY recommend Leeann Peters.
Great and helpful therapist
I have had one session and I can say she is great at what she does. I appreciate the fact that she allows everything to be put out on the table. I hope to gain from this experience
After our 1st session with Leeann, we were both very impressed with her ability to listen and offer advice. Exactly what we’ve been looking for.
