Leidy Martinez Bodre

Leidy Martinez Bodre

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 23 mi away • Gig Harbor, WA


¡Hola! I'm Leidy, a bilingual (English and Spanish) therapist. I work with adults navigating major life transitions, grief and loss, fertility issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, family transitions and more. Many of the people I work with are in the middle of something big, whether that's a loss, a shift in their family, a fertility journey, or simply a season of life that feels heavier than expected, and they're looking for a space where they can finally exhale.

I'm originally from the Dominican Republic, and Spanish is my first language. As an immigrant myself, I understand what it's like to navigate multiple worlds, identities, and expectations. I'm also the proud parent of a son with autism, so I know firsthand what it's like to walk through major life transitions, advocate for your family, and find strength you didn't know you had. These experiences shape the way I show up for my clients every day.

My background is rooted in community work. I spent years in non-profit organizations supporting diverse communities, and that experience taught me the importance of meeting people where they are, honoring their culture, language, strengths, and identities. I believe in creating individualized treatment plans that reflect the whole of who you are.

Therapist

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than 20 years of experience — and I've spent much of that time working with women navigating anxiety, ADHD, trauma, grief, and the weight of carrying everything at once. I also work as a clinical supervisor, which means I'm constantly learning, staying sharp, and bringing the best of current practice into my work with clients.

I believe therapy works best when it doesn't feel like a performance. My sessions have room for real talk, a little laughter when it's called for, and honesty about what's hard. I take my own wellbeing seriously — time with my dogs, getting outside — because I know showing up fully requires taking care of myself too.
