Hello,

I'm so glad you stopped by-

I'm Dr. Korie Leigh and I would love to get to know you more.

Here is a little about me.

I've had more job titles than I can count and none of them come close to describing the depth of my experiences.
If I could sum up these experiences I might say-

I’ve held the hand of a child who is at the end of life and helped them create a lasting legacy for their parents and siblings.
I’ve sat with the enormity of grief, the depth of despair, as a mother questions her identity after her only child dies.
I’ve held space for those who can’t find solace, comfort, or validation for their ambiguous losses.
I’ve fostered the development of resilience and coping strategies for children diagnosed with chronic illnesses and life-limiting illnesses.
I’ve supported those struggling with chronic pain and illness to take back their life one small step at a time.
I’ve cultivated a space for people to feel safe enough to explore their creativity, passions, and honor their true purpose.

In all of these experiences, no matter the circumstance, I supported people through the most challenging time of their life.

The result?

Each person felt validated, seen, heard, empowered, and was able to face whatever life stressor met them with a tool box of newly created coping techniques that fostered the development of resilience.

I can’t fix the pain you are experiencing. But I can help you learn how to navigate through it.
