Abby Leefer, LCSW-R - Perspectives Counseling of LI
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Life can be messy, unpredictable, and overwhelming—and it’s normal to feel unsure about what to do sometimes. Our therapists have been there, and understand what it’s like to navigate life’s ups and downs. We use humanistic, client-centered approaches alongside evidence-based practices, to focus on you as a whole person, listen without judgment, and work together to help you find clarity and understand your life better, while offering support and practical guidance.

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
What makes my practice unique is the way I integrate evidence-based care with a deeply collaborative, person-centered approach. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel safe enough to be fully themselves, understood without judgment, and supported in a way that honors their autonomy, values, and lived experience.
I work from a place of curiosity, respect, and cultural sensitivity. I always meeting clients where they are and moving at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor therapy using various modalities to fit each person’s needs, goals, and emotional experiences.
Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to navigate what they are going through. My role is not to “fix” you, but to help you better understand yourself, your patterns, and your emotional world so that you can begin responding to life with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
I also prioritize accessibility and convenience by offering fully virtual therapy, allowing you to access care from the comfort and privacy of your own space. With flexible scheduling, therapy can be integrated into your life in a way that feels realistic and supportive rather than overwhelming.
If you are looking for a therapeutic space where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin creating meaningful change that aligns with who you are and what matters to you, I would be honored to work with you.

Skye D Ross, EMDR Therapist for High Achieving Women
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C, MPH, EMDR-Certified Therapist & Consultant In Training
If you're a top-performing woman who is juggling the dream of "having it all" with the reality of "doing it all," welcome. One thing about me is that I keep it real in therapy: The reality of being a woman in healthcare and a therapist is that we may know all things we should be doing, and we also know how hard it can be to do those things. We'll build insight and work through the challenges that come up along the way. My specialties are supporting women through the burnout of being a parent and high-achieving professional, vicarious trauma, and workplace trauma.
