Her practice focuses on the complexities of violence\, dismantling the perpetrator/survivor binary\, accountability\, repair\, and transformation. She has a profound belief that no one is disposable and comes to this work with a commitment to radical compassion\, curiosity\, and humility. As a trainer\, Leita invites participants to reflect on their own experiences\, co-creating a learning space where everyone feels comfortable to share their successes. She also provides opportunities to reflect on more difficult experiences\, ask questions\, and learn practical\, relational approaches to supporting others.
