The therapist that understands your needs.
Our team
Leydi Tatiana Fonseca, LCSW, LCADC, Founder
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) in New Jersey, with over a decade of experience supporting children, individuals, and families across a variety of settings. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, addiction counseling, and culturally responsive, evidence-based therapy that centers compassion, collaboration, and trust. As a clinician-scholar with research experience, I bring an evidence-informed and solution-focused approach to my practice, helping clients recognize their strengths, build resilience, and move toward healing and meaningful change. I am deeply committed to creating a supportive space where kindness, empowerment, and hope guide the therapeutic process.
Ah, wonderful reminder: Being kind to oneself involves acknowledging your worth, accepting your imperfections, and treating yourself with the same compassion and understanding you'd offer to a friend. Remember, self-care and self-love are essential to well-being. Embrace your journey and foster a gentle, supportive relationship with yourself.
