I feel I better understand the complexities of individual identity as someone who has worked to decolonize and learn my role in the world. I aim to offer compassionate guidance on your journey of self-exploration and growth.🍉Many times the systems in place are problematic, not us or our way of thinking. I have 20 years (in 2024) of experience in the child and family services/advocacy field, finding my passion working with youth and families stuck in broken systems. Prior to earning my MSW, I worked with incarcerated youth and families involved in the child welfare system. I have experience with a variety of needs including trauma, ADHD, gender identity, women’s experiences, and grief with a holistic approach to meet each client’s complex needs.
Our first session will be a time for you to get to know me as a clinician and decide if I can meet your needs while also allowing me time to understand why you are seeking therapy. I like for the first session to be a space where you can identify what you would like to get out of therapy as well as what brings you to therapy in general. (I know, easy peasy!)
I love to connect with people. I think we are all unique and all have things we struggle with. I dont mind sharing up's and down's I have had because I believe we heal in safety and we can only find that safety in community. I have worked to step outside of the traditional counseling approach to truly meet people where they are, help with harm reduction, and build supports both internally and externally.
My ideal client is anyone who is genuine about reflection as well as growth. I typically work with the 'others' who feel like they don't fit in with traditional society at times.

No two people are the same so I prefer to pull from multiple treatment modalities including DBT and body based or Somatic practices.

Leah has made my first experience with this type of care easy and effective! She is great at identifying my needs and helping me meet them with new goals and plans. I highly recommend her. Thanks, Leah!

Leah has helped me feel relaxed and ready to share. I am new to therapy and so far the experience has been very good. She has a very comforting presence and helps me to see things more clearly.
