I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with individuals facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I also support people with autism and learning disabilities, using approaches like somatic interventions, DBT, Internal Family Systems, and attachment-based therapy. My goal is to create a safe, client-centered space where each person’s unique needs are honored throughout their healing journey.
During our first sessions I will get to know each other and see if we're a good fit. Additonally,i will ask questions to get to you know better.
Non judgmental and tailor my apporoach to each client's unique need
My ideal clients are those seeking growth and serenity in their lives and relationships.
Other specialties
I identify as
Attachment-based
I use attachment theory as a foundation because it gives me a deeper understanding of what clients might be experiencing beneath the surface—whether it’s anxiety, avoidance, or intense fear of abandonment. This framework helps me respond with greater empathy and precision. It also helps clients make sense of their reactions and patterns in a way that feels validating and non-shaming. I find it especially helpful because it not only brings awareness to old wounds but also offers a path toward healing. Through the therapeutic relationship, I can offer a safe, consistent, and attuned space—something that many clients may not have experienced before. Over time, I see clients begin to internalize that sense of safety and build healthier, more secure connections in their lives.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
I’m drawn to the way IFS centers the Self as inherently calm, curious, and capable of healing. I find that when I can help clients connect to that Self energy, real and lasting change becomes possible. It's not about fixing people—it's about creating enough internal safety and space so that their system can begin to heal itself.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I find mindfullness helpful in various ways. It helps with connecting with staying grounded and present in the moment. Additonally,it can be helpful to use in conjuction with somatic work as your able mindfully and somactically connect to your emotions.
Somatic
Our bodies keep the score. Many times it's difficult to articulate or idenitfy the issue. Connecting somatically allows gives you clues to what your body is/did expereince

Leah in my opinion is a very amazing therapist and she is very good at what she does. She's very welcoming, warm and kind but she also is very good at listening, very informative in her replies and the entire vibe of one session with her was that this is a safe space to talk about anything I wanted to and that no topic should be embarrassing. I would highly recommend Leah to anyone seeking therapy.

Today was my first appointment with Leah. I was very apprehensive about starting therapy, because I’ve have some non-therapeutic and distressing experiences with other therapists. I think that Leah and I are a good fit. She said several things that spoke to me deeply, and she made me feel seen and heard. Not many people in my life do that. She is very kind and non-judgmental. Based on my first appointment, I highly recommend Leah.
