I’m Lea Dickinson, MA, LPC, NCC, and I help adults, couples, and teens who are ready to heal from past wounds, navigate life’s challenges, and create more fulfilling relationships. You might feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, weighed down by grief or anxiety, or unsure how to move forward after a difficult experience.

My goal as a therapist is to help you uncover the roots of what’s been holding you back and support you in creating new ways of living that feel authentic and aligned with your values. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, strengthen your coping tools, and help you build a sense of clarity and self-compassion.

My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, grounded in empathy, safety, and attentive listening—fostering a space where healing can take root and grow. I aim to create a space where you feel truly seen and understood.

Peter Levine teaches that “trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.” I strive to be that empathetic witness — walking alongside you as you process, release, and reclaim your sense of self.

I use approaches like EMDR therapy, Brainspotting, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and more to address your unique needs. Whether you’re working through trauma or grief, navigating a relationship challenge, or wanting to strengthen your sense of self, we’ll move at a pace that honors your comfort and readiness every step of the way. Like a tree drawing strength from its roots, true healing begins deep within when we are seen and held with empathy—nourishing your foundation so you can grow, thrive, and reach toward new possibilities. I would be honored to help nourish the roots of your healing journey.

My work is especially focused on helping clients with:

• Trauma and PTSD
• Grief and loss
• Anxiety and depression
• ADHD

I also have experience supporting individuals with Relationship issues and self confidence challenges, OCD, infertility, etc.

I draw from a range of evidence-based and integrative modalities, including:

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
• Brainspotting
• Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
• Person-Centered Therapy
• Integrative

Our work will be guided by both practical strategies and deeper exploration, giving you the tools and understanding needed for lasting change.

If you’re ready to begin your journey toward healing and personal growth, I’d be honored to support you.
