Work With Me

Welcome. You belong here.

Let me be your proverbial big sister — here to design a treatment protocol created uniquely for your needs, your goals, and the results you've always dreamed for your life.

About me

I am a stand for the recovery of survivors.

I'm Carlina — licensed mental health counselor, life coach, and an advocate for survivors of gender and sex-related crimes. I have dedicated my life to working with survivors, providing tools, and facilitating the process of recovery.

I love this work because I get to witness, firsthand, the amazing human capacity to recover. It doesn't matter where you come from or what you have been through — though it doesn't mean the road is the same for everyone. My commitment is a protocol built uniquely around you.

Carlina León, LMHC

I understand

With all of this on your shoulders, I'm sure you may…

Be shamed by people who say, "You should put the past in the past and just let it go."
Feel you can't be who you are because society will shame you, think you are broken, or even blame you.
Feel exhausted, drained, fearful of disasters — and maybe like a failure.
Be beating yourself up over an inability to "forgive and forget."

"It's time for you — and the world — to see the real you. Not the you that you made up in order to feel and be safe. Your voice deserves to be heard."

— Carlina León

Three fun facts about me

Builder at heart

There's a running joke that I'm like Wendy from Bob the Builder — I love construction work.

I find space where there is none

I love the surprise on people's faces when they realize what's possible with commitment, faith, and creativity.

A HUGE nerd

Proudly, unapologetically.

Recovery from psychological trauma is possible.

It's a journey of confronting one challenge at a time. I've supported many survivors, and I'd be honored to support you.
