Psychological Trauma & Victimology Expert

Give yourself permission to get the help you need.

Things can get better. I'm a licensed trauma therapist who walks beside survivors of gender and sex-related crimes — with practical tools, real results, and no judgment.

You belong here

You don't have to carry this alone — or explain yourself first.

I am Carlina León, licensed mental health counselor and a stand for the recovery of survivors. I've dedicated my career to giving survivors the tools and the company to move through trauma at their own pace.

Sessions are fully remote, so you can do this work from a place where you feel safe. Wherever you are in New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut, your voice deserves to be heard.

More about working together
Carlina León, LMHC

"If recovering and dealing with the trauma feels like a full-time job, I can help. If you'd like to be in control of your emotional responses, I can help. If you don't know who to turn to in order to explain what happened in a way that is relatable and understood — I can help."

— Carlina León
