Vianney León

Licensed Professional Counselor

Vianney León, MSW, LSW

I approach this work with humility, care, and deep respect. It is a privilege to support individuals of all  identities and expressions, including those navigating first-generation experiences, trauma, or feelings of being overwhelmed, alone, anxious, stressed, and/or grieving.
 
My approach is rooted in liberatory psychology. This means we pay attention to how power, oppression, and societal systems shape our experiences, while also honoring the strengths, resilience, and skills you already bring to life’s challenges. We also explore how family, friends, community, culture, and larger systems influence your well-being. While working together at your own pace, we focus on building and drawing from the deep strength, creativity, and wisdom you already carry.
  • Immediate Openings!
  • Works Remotely Via Telehealth

More About Vianney

Wendy is a client-centered therapist who believes that therapy should fit you, not the other way
around. She draws from an eclectic mix of evidence-based approaches, including:

✔ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – to help shift unhelpful thought patterns

✔ Gestalt Therapy – often including creative, dramatic roleplay techniques

✔ Existential Therapy – to explore meaning, purpose, and identity

✔ Motivational Interviewing – to help you tap into your own strengths and motivation

Each session is tailored to your needs, goals, and pace. Wendy would be honored to walk with you as you discover greater clarity, healing, and joy.

Insurance Update

Effective February 2, 2026, Authentic Growth Wellness Group will transition to Private Pay and remain in-network only with BCBS PPO & BlueChoice PPO plans. We’ll no longer be in-network with Aetna, Cigna, or UnitedHealthcare.

This change helps us continue offering high-quality, accessible, and sustainable care for our clients and clinicians.
