Leeza Arbiv is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who offers a warm, collaborative, and grounded approach to therapy. Leeza earned her Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University and now works under the expert supervision of Dr. Neda Safvati, PsyD. She works with individuals of all ages, including children, adolescents, young adults, and parents, providing a safe and supportive environment for all clients navigating life’s many challenges.
Leeza’s integrative approach blends attachment-based and psychodynamic therapy with tools from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and somatic practices. Her training emphasizes relational depth, cultural sensitivity, and integrative client-centered care. She supports clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, and emotional regulation, tailoring interventions to each individual’s needs.
Before entering the therapist career, Leeza supported young people as a family assistant, summer camp counselor, and distance educator during the COVID-19 pandemic. These formative roles enhanced her ability to connect authentically with children and teens, reinforcing her commitment to providing consistent support and understanding as a therapist.
Outside of therapy, Leeza enjoys nature, cooking, music, and art, and enjoys thoughtfully incorporating her creativity and mindfulness into her work. She believes healing is fostered through connection, authentic expression, and being truly seen.
Leeza looks forward to supporting you in your growth and healing.
