In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each of my client's individual needs.

Some of human suffering is about the way we experience the events of our lives rather than the things themselves. Therapy offers an opportunity to bring awareness to our experiences and change our emotional relationship to them rather than try to change the events themselves. By thinking of events in this way, we are able to gain a sense of control in our lives and positively experience and influence its direction. If we believe that we have the power within us to achieve health and happiness, then the events in our lives that cause us pain and suffering can be seen as an opportunity to learn about ourselves and experience personal growth.

People encounter challenges in life. When the challenges become overwhelming and the ability to resolve them independently seems unattainable, therapy can help. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work collaboratively with clients to identify concerning issues, create goals, process emotional pain and overcome difficulties in life. The work is designed to empower people to engage life in a more positive and productive way. With over 20 years of counseling experience, I help those whose lives have been impacted by Addictions, Eating Disorders, Depressive Disorders, Bipolar Disorders, Anxiety Disorders and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders. I maintain a practice designed to help people navigate a wide variety of mental health disorders, emotional difficulties, and transitional life events.

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly on edge—and not sure how to change it? You’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. At Perspectives Counseling of Long Island, we specialize in helping adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, emotional overwhelm, and relationship challenges. Many of our clients come to us feeling frustrated with themselves—wanting to feel better, communicate better, and show up differently in their lives, but not knowing how to get there. Our practice was founded by Abby Leefer, LCSW-R, an experienced clinician with decades of work supporting individuals, couples, and families. Abby built PCLI on the belief that therapy should never be one-size-fits-all. Every person brings a unique story, and your therapy should reflect that. Our team takes a warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth approach. We actively help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface and give you tools you can actually use in your everyday life. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, life transitions, low self-esteem, or difficulties at home or in relationships, we meet you where you are and help you move forward. We draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and family systems work, but more importantly, we tailor everything to you—your goals, your personality, and what actually works in your life. Above all, we are committed to creating a space where you feel comfortable being honest—without fear of judgment. Therapy should feel like a place where you can exhale, gain clarity, and start making real, meaningful changes. If you’re ready to feel more in control, more confident, and more like yourself again, we’re here to help.

Connection in relationship is as important for us as food and water. When relationships weaken or rupture, mental health challenges can emerge. The emotional wounds that result deserve the same care and attention as physical ones, and healing can begin right now. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a master’s degree in community and trauma counseling. I am trained in evidence-based approaches that support trauma recovery and help strengthen relationships. I work with individuals, couples, and families, and my goal is to help clients create meaning, deepen connection, and move toward healing in their lives. At the heart of my work is the belief that the therapeutic relationship itself can be a powerful catalyst for change. Every person’s story is unique, and I approach each client with hope, curiosity, and deep respect for their experiences. Therapy with me is a collaborative process. Together, we’ll build trust, explore difficult emotions and patterns, and make space for new insight and growth. While I can’t promise specific outcomes, I can promise to walk alongside you, working toward greater connection with yourself and the people who matter most to you.

I welcome the opportunity to join in your journey towards a better life. The internal turmoil and external struggles you may be currently facing are very difficult to endure. Sadness, anxiety or relationship difficulties pose real barriers to your ability to appreciate yourself and experience joy. The negative thoughts and emotions are powerful forces that taint the view of yourself, others, and the world around you. They cause unnecessary pain and suffering, as they filter your perception of the past, the present, and the future, in a never-ending pattern of defeat. With my professional guidance and your courage, we can bring more happiness, confidence, and satisfaction in your personal connections. My therapeutic approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and insight-oriented interventions to help identify the negative beliefs that have prevented you from achieving your goals and experience happiness. Together we will build a caring and supportive environment to help you rise above your suffering and expand your capacity for work, love, and experience genuine connections. Through our encounters, you will learn new skills that will help you overcome the adversities that life presents. Please visit my website to explore my professional services to get started.
