Founder of Architecture of Humanity

CHIEF VISIONARY OFFICER, CONTENT CREATOR AND FACILITATOR

Leslie is a Somatic therapist specializing in trauma resolution. She sees clients privately in her office in Fallbrook, California. Her formal education is in psychology: a BS in psychology and an MS in counseling psychology. She worked for 10 years as a school counselor. In 2017, she finished a three-year certificate program in Somatic Experiencing (SE) and now sees clients based primarily within this modality. SE is a body-oriented therapeutic model and practice based on the lifework of Dr. Peter Levine. It is the leading practice of trauma resolution.

Moving away from the pathological standard in traditional psychotherapy, Leslie uses a psycho-biological approach which empowers individual sovereignty and agency. Primary methodology include: nervous system and attachment Theory education, Polyvagal Theory, Kundalini Kriya, coherence (HRV) via nature-cycle syncing, unconscious patterning awareness (Depth Psychology) and comparative animal behavior.

In addition, Leslie has over 1,500 hours in training and teaching yoga, including Restorative Yoga and Pranayama (breathwork). She has completed the level one training in Cranial Sacral Therapy as well as Yoga Nidra iRest, a trauma-researched guided meditation program.

Over the last five years, Leslie has facilitated over 40 workshops and events, ranging in attendance from intimate yoga studio trainings (10-12 participants) to large group education sessions (up to 50 participants). She currently runs monthly intensive groups under the brand “Sisters of the Forest,” which focuses on the idea of finding personal freedom from “Global Codependence.”

Her most recent work of passion lies in the creation of a manual called Primal Partnering©. It utilizes all the above-mentioned bodies of research and work, and seeks to provide a new language, lens and paradigm to the old-guard methodology of couples therapy and addiction.

Globally-speaking, Leslie believes – via personal and professional empirical research – that by learning our nervous systems (organism, mammalian, Homo sapiens and individual), we can begin to release the constriction of protection of fear. This transcendence will allow us to find our True Nature and bespoke Soul’s purpose.

Witnessing first-hand the power of a sacred community and presence of a teacher fully embodied in integrity, she seeks to share space and land with others where safety, spirit and action are viewed as paramount elements in healing.
