WENDY LEEDS is anxious.

 

As a three-time cancer survivor, she is an expert on what it's like to live with anxiety.

As an experienced, licensed psychotherapist, Wendy's mission is to help anxious people everywhere learn to acknowledge and ease their anxiety.

Her work empowers people to create the calm-centered lives they deserve.

Wendy lives in Massachusetts with her husband, Tom and their dog, Myles Standish.

A diagnosis became a mission.

After being diagnosed with breast cancer, Wendy underwent several surgeries and six months of chemotherapy. It was at that low point that she began her life-long journey to create a calm, centered, joyful life – for herself and others. She began reading everything she could get her hands on about anxiety, and later went back to school to earn two graduate degrees in psychology.

 

Today, as a licensed mental health therapist, she has assembled an amazing collection of tools, tips, and techniques for explaining how to cope with anxiety with or without medication. She uses many of these tools in her own life, and is passionate about sharing them with other women.

Located in the Greater Boston Massachusetts area, Wendy Leeds LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) is passionate about helping women everywhere ease their anxiety and create the peaceful, calm life they've always wanted. A therapist, an author, a speaker and a three-time cancer survivor, Wendy loves sharing her experiences and anxiety management techniques with anyone who suffers from anxiety, worry or panic.


Wendy is a highly-skilled motivational speaker with decades of experience in a wide variety of venues. She is available to speak to professional organizations, media outlets, universities, and educators around New England and the Northeast. She enjoys working with organizations to customize her talks to effectively connect with their members.

About Wendy's Work

As Wendy began to address her own anxiety, she searched for resources to help herself and other anxious people ease their fears.

Over the years, she's collected an array of simple tools and techniques that can be used to ease anxiety both in the moment and for a lifetime.

And she's proud to share this wealth of information with anyone else who suffers from anxiety themselves or has an anxious person in their life. This material comes in the form of her blog, podcast, videos, and her books: Calm and Sense and the forthcoming Solving the Anxiety Equation.

"My mission is to give voice to anxious women everywhere and to help us acknowledge and ease our anxieties. I provide women a safe place to turn when we're feeling overwhelmed or afraid and offer practical ways to calm our anxiety. By bringing light to the under-served community of anxious women, I empower as many women as I possibly can to create the calm, centered lives we were born to live."   —Wendy Leeds
