About

Hello, my name is Shawndre Leydon. I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida. I graduated from Bridgewater State University in Massachusetts in 2017. My practice focuses on working with adults and adolescents in a community setting as well as a forensic setting, working in various state hospitals, treatment centers and jails throughout Massachusetts and Florida. As a community counselor, I specialized in clients with diagnoses including: trauma, PTSD, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, etc. I provided services to adult clients, adolescent clients, couples and families. I also attended IEP sessions to assist families in the school setting. Furthermore as a forensic counselor, I have a variety of experience working with patients who are sexually deviant to patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder who are impulsively sexually preoccupied.
