About Lelalelei Nomura

I am licensed in Wyoming with 6 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. It is understandable to feel “stuck” and consumed by unpleasant thoughts and feelings of self-doubt. I will work together with you to explore new ways of relating to yourself and your experiences while supporting meaningful change that aligns with your goals and values. It’s my belief that we all are deserving of living into our greatest selves, but that voice of self-doubt and its irrational nature prevent us from doing so. I am committed to creating an accepting and non-judgmental environment where we can work towards therapeutic change based on your individual needs. My therapeutic environment is best described as a safe, nonjudgmental, and confidential partnership. You’ll notice that I utilize flexible thinking about how people heal, often bringing in the latest empirically-based research or a specific mindfulness practice catered to your individual needs. The process is catered to empowering you and your uniqueness.

“Lelalelei is amazing ! She listens and gives me new perspectives which i super appreciate!”

“Lelalelei is the first therapist I've had that I feel actually wants to help me. Unlike my other therapists she has given me tools to help cope with my anxiety and anger, and if they don't work we explore other options. In just a short amount of time she has helped me more than anyone ever has and I can already feel a difference in my emotions and how they affect my life. I would highly recommend Lelalelei to anyone seeking a therapist.”

“A great listener who asks all the right questions. She’s incredibly helpful in making me aware of automatic negative thoughts and guiding me toward reframing them.”

“Best therapist I’ve ever had. She listens, gives practical tools, and has set me up for success. She also has affirmed my emotions and my ability to communicate, which has helped me become a more confident individual.”

“She is awesome! So glad I found her! Can't recommend enough!”

“Lela was great! I definitely recommend her. She's kind, keeps you on track, and is a big supporter all the way around! Thank you Lela! ❤️”

“I have appreciated her understanding and support so much. She has created a safe space where I feel free to express myself. Even at first it was hard to fight my people pleasing tendencies and think about what she wants to hear from me. But her reassurance, deep and specific questions, along with her waiting attitude when listening, helped me to put that tendency aside and be honest with her and myself!”

“Listens and really wants to help! Thankful to have her my first time talking with a professional!”

“I’m super happy with Lelalelei. I feel that she’s good at holding me accountable and helps me set goals that improve the quality of my life. I would recommend her to anyone struggling anxiety, depression, adhd, relationships, etc. She’s the best!”
