Leonard Szymczak
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW
I believe that no one is broken. We have all learned strategies to survive as best we could. Therefore, we can learn new strategies and alter our lives so that we can thrive.
As a psychotherapist, writer, and life coach, I have worked for the past 40 years in both Australia and America. I was a director of a Family Therapy Program in Sydney, Australia, and later worked with the Family Institute at Northwestern University.
My belief is that the only thing that is wrong is what we've been taught to think and believe about ourselves that stop us from being our true selves. Therefore, my goal is to empower clients to be the hero or heroine to face adversity, overcome anxiety, and create empowering stories that lead to healthier relationships.
I am the award-winning, bestselling author of 7 books including "The Roadmap Home: Your GPS to Inner Peace"; "Fighting for Love: Turn Conflict into Intimacy," coauthored with Mari Frank; and "Power Tools for Men: A BLueprint for Healthy Masculinity," coauthored with Rick Broniec.

Davene, Fecteau
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPCC
Do you feel lost and overwhelmed in the season of life you are in? Perhaps you, like so many of us, have been living through periods of prolonged stress. You may have experienced a significant traumatic event, or a million little things may have piled up. Either way, the methods you have been using to cope just may not be serving you well anymore. Therapy, and the work of healing, is learning how not to abandon yourself. With compassion, curiosity, and acceptance, I collaborate with you on working towards your goals so you can rediscover the wholeness of who you are. In order to heal, your brain and body need to feel safe and secure. You are the expert on your own internal experience, and my role is to assist you in learning how to utilize inner resources to help your mind and nervous system recover gently. I encourage you to not just treat your symptoms, but to go deeper into examining and healing what is causing the symptoms. This creates lasting change and the resources you learn to access in therapy can be utilized throughout your life moving forward.
I offer free phone consultations. Reach out today to learn more so you can decide how to proceed. I look forward to connecting with you.

Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I provide services in Spanish + English.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist of Mesoamerica-Indigienous ancestry. My life exposed to community violence, trauma and intersecting oppressions has led me to the work of healing, self-discovery, exploration and ancestral healing.
I was raised in the SF Bay Area and I currently reside on the stolen lands of the Tongva peoples, colonially known as Los Angeles, California.
My lived experiences of being a person of color with intersecting identities, navigating the world and the trauma that comes with that, has led me to the practice of healing at a young age. I grew up with many years of witnessing (through family members + my community) severe mental illness, addiction, community violence, chronic suicidality, incarceration and domestic violence. Through my own stories and experiences, as a justice-oriented therapist, I aim to disrupt and dismantle these oppressive systems within myself and in my practice to make therapy a safe(r) space for folks who are targeted and made marginalized.
