Who We Are
Welcome to Empowered Living Collective,
founded by Anahita Lake-Khosravi and June Leuterman
Anahita is a first generation Iranian American who takes immense pride in her culture and ethnic background and wants to always honor and create space for others to explore their cultural identity. June is a trauma survivor and social justice advocate who is passionate about using her voice and skills as a counselor to help people access their power and innate right to choose a life that works for them.
We came together to create this space to offer holistic support and care for people in all walks of life. Empowered Living Collective is woman-founded and owned, and we are so grateful to have the opportunity to help and empower our clients from all different backgrounds. We believe in the strength of our unique identities and value diversity in all its forms, including ethnic and cultural backgrounds, neurotypes, sexuality and gender identities, and ability or disability status. As a core part of our practice, we create a safe space for each of our clients to be seen, honored, and embody their true self.
Why Empowered Living? When deciding on the name we started with identifying words we stand by and words we want to encompass in our practice. We also thought about our mission and the future of our clinic. Ultimately, we realized that our goal is to allow our clients to be the expert on their lives and experiences and for us to simply help guide them through their hardships and heavy moments. We aim for you to be able to lead a life where you feel empowered in your ability to handle what comes your way.
Why Collective? One of the strongest predictors of success in therapy is the therapeutic relationship. We understand that finding a therapist you connect with and feel comfortable with can take time and effort. Knowing this, we want to bring together a diverse group of clinicians to offer you support so that if you find you’re not connecting with one person you don’t have to start your search completely over. We are working hard to bring in clinicians from diverse backgrounds, who offer a diverse range of therapeutic treatments to work with our diverse clients.
Whether you are a client looking to start your therapy journey, or a clinician looking to join a welcoming and encouraging group practice, we hope you find space and acceptance here.
