Leslie Carr, PsyD, is a licensed clinical psychologist who works as both a psychotherapist and a coach, in San Francisco and online via Skype. Leslie’s varied and eclectic background makes her a bonafide expert in human behavior. A graduate of Connecticut College and the California School of Professional Psychology, Leslie also spent a year in Paris, studying at the Sorbonne and working for Le Centre International des Sciences Criminelles et Penales—a French government agency which educated international law enforcement officials about the psychology of serial killers. Today, Leslie’s more concerned with what helps people to thrive. As a blogger and a public speaker, her mission is to help people to see that their emotions contain meaning, and that our social, cultural, and interpersonal experiences impact us just as much as our genes and biology.
