Leon Digard

As a licensed psychotherapist, I provide relational, psychodynamic therapy to people in New York. I understand that LGBTQIA+ people are constantly navigating many systems of oppression and inequity. I therefore approach my work collaboratively to build a space of care, creativity and, above all, trust. With a grounding in Gestalt practices, I appreciate the many ways that we hold and react to our emotions within our bodies. I also understand the power, and limits, of our rational, logical selves. Together, we’ll work to find a new balance between thinking and feeling, drawing on the wisdom found in both. My combination of somatic, embodied techniques and acceptance-focussed therapy will help you to be present to yourself—and those around you—in ways that feel manageable and rewarding.
