I've been virtually meeting with Leon for over a year. Leon is very attentive to detail, and we've developed a good therapist-client relationship. He is easy to talk to, the sessions feel personalized, and they have continuity. He can find themes in my life and connect them together in meaningful ways, and can recall details from long ago when relevant. I have become more productive and understand myself better as a result, so I would highly recommend Leon's services.

Coach Leon Tsao is incredible. His empathy and dedication is refreshing and inspirational. He incorporates many modalities into his practice and groups, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT, gestalt therapy, and strength-based approaches. He concentrates on what you are doing right (drawing from a place of strength) as a means of motivation. Leon believes in a client focused approach, he is attentive, present, and organized. I highly recommend him and I benefited greatly from his services.

Leon is kind, caring, and very knowledgeable! He creates the type of environment where you feel safe and respected to share your innermost thoughts and feelings, while he helps coach you through them to better understanding. After every workshop with Leon, I feel heard, renewed, and equipped with very helpful tools & techniques to help me navigate this life.

I've been working with Leon to help with my ADHD symptoms for over a year now, and he has been very helpful beyond just my ADHD and helping me navigate emotions relating to work and relationships. Highly recommended!

Through visualization exercises and heartfelt conversations, Leon has guided me in realizing my inner strength and own sense of freedom which I longed for. He helped me realize what values are important to me as I go forward into the future.

Leon Tsao was attentive to my mother and my individual personalities. He made sure to create space for both of us to find balance, feel like our voices were heard and needs were being met. When I thought we would hit a major impasse because my mother did not want to revisit past experiences, Leon skillfully guided us through relationship exercises to build stronger rapport and develop a cache of positive memories. We’ve gotten better at our day-to-day communication, learned more about each other as people, and are on our way to having the adult relationship we wanted.

I have worked with Leon since July 2019. Well Leon made the environment warm, welcoming, and engaging. Little by little the various exercises helped me to take control of my mental health and open up. I felt I didn't need to be strong for everyone but for myself. As I attended more sessions with Leon my physical health got better. No more high cholesterol, insomnia, and hair loss. Leon helped me learn about being mentally strong for myself. I even got to learn about self-care a concept that was foreign for me. I am getting better. I still have small anxiety attacks but I employ the techniques Leon has taught me. Take deep breaths whenever I see my favorite color. I also try to recognize my feelings more and not just run away from experiencing them. In retrospect, Leon sets the right environment, assign custom made techniques to help others, and takes his time to explain the importance of caring for your mental health.

For over these past few months. I've seen some progress in terms of my mental health when it comes to my overall well-being. From coming to his meetups in person to coming over his zoom calls every week. I get a tremendous amount of support from Leon. My past job layoff during the month of January was quite surprising but overall had some support from him in terms of navigating and managing my anxieties. I highly recommend his services for those who are willing to improve and work on themselves.

I think Leon is a great listener, and helps me navigate my own thoughts and feelings. Thinking back before I started (it must be over a year now) my life feels much more manageable now.

It was a pleasure having Leon Tsao as my social anxiety coach. Leon is personable, friendly and most importantly cared deeply about me as a client. He repeatedly went out of his way and spent countless hours helping me work on my social anxiety. Whether by meeting in person or over the phone, Leon was always flexible, readily available and eager to help in any way possible. I highly recommend Leon for coaching.
