Essential Counseling and Therapeutic Services, PLLC
Welcome to Essential!

"Leon Monroe has made an enormous difference in my child’s life. Leon has a very calm presence. He quickly developed a rapport with my child after other therapists had been unable to help. He uses creative strategies to encourage open communication during therapy. The social groups at Essential are designed to engage children playfully through common adolescent interests. This has been a far more effective approach for my teenager (with Level 1 autism) than other groups we have tried. I have seen tremendous growth in my child’s resilience and social relationships since treatment began. We have also received valuable support and guidance from other members of the team. The team’s experience and skill in treating autism spectrum disorder has led us to feeling much more optimistic about our child’s present quality of life along with the future ahead".
