Steven Lecce

Therapist

Virtual • Vermont


Looking for guidance to work through trauma? Feeling stuck in your relationship? Wondering about your life’s purpose? You’re not alone. We all face challenges at different points in our lives, and sometimes we need support to find self-awareness and compassion—both essential to healing. Using evidence-based approaches like IFS and EMDR, I help support emotional and mental health goals. I believe we all have the innate ability to feel, heal, discover, and live a more uplifting life. All it takes to begin is the willingness to take that first step and trust the process.
