About My Clients

My name is Rebecca Leon, and I am a Muslim American therapist from New York. I believe that the foundation of therapy is built on having a safe and supportive space where all people are accepted for exactly who they are. My approach to therapy is grounded in social justice and culturally-affirming care, which means being responsive to the cultural and social context of each person's lived experiences. I aim to support my clients through empathy and unconditional positive regard.

My Background and Approach

I offer compassionate, psychodynamic therapy grounded in social justice and cultural humility. I specialize in working with individuals and couples from diverse racial, ethnic, and spiritual backgrounds. I recognize that there's no “one size fits all” approach, which is why my style is tailored to each Client's individual needs.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Traditional therapeutic environments can leave people feeling misunderstood. You deserve to feel seen! Together, we can navigate the complexity of your inner world while honoring your lived experiences. If any of this resonates with you, let's connect!
