Meet Our Team

  • Lianna Rodela- Gomez, LMSW

    Hello, I’m Lianna! I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), currently offering in- person services with L&C Therapy.

    I am an eager, dedicated and passionate social worker providing services to children, teens and families. I have worked with diverse cultural groups and understand various points of views and values.

    I am always rooting for my clients, while advocating for what they want for themselves (and/or family). I strive to provide a safe space and understanding where I encourage autonomy and assist with self- discovery.

    My approach is person-centered, utilizing strengths-based techniques to promote genuine interaction and productive time with one another. Sometimes encouragement, motivation and change are needed, while other times, a listening ear and validation works best. I utilize a variety of approaches and interventions associated with:

    Depression

    Anxiety

    Stress

    Grief and loss

    Relational conflict

    Social skills

    Life Transitions

    I am open minded, light hearted and want to make you feel comfortable and safe, while sharing your experiences with me. My goal is to help you get to where you want to be, while offering skills and techniques to cope with life stressors.

  • Jessica Leonard, LMSW

    Hello! My name is Jessica and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker with thirteen years of experience. I have worked in various behavioral health settings including inpatient, outpatient, crisis and emergency centers.

    I value authenticity, vulnerability, flexibility and laughter! I am committed to being a perpetual learner, both personally and professionally. I am a calm, warm and uplifting social worker who aims to truly understand, see and hear my clients.

    Life can be overwhelming, and I believe we all go through times where additional support is called for. I provide a trusting and comfortable space for my clients to be curious about themselves. While my empathy and sensitivity are unwavering, there are also times when my clients may benefit from encouragement to move outside their comfort zone in order to optimize personal growth and self discovery. 

    I aim to assist my clients in the following areas:
    Depression

    Anxiety

    Grief & loss

    Adjustment to illness

    Self-esteem
