More about Leah

  • 24 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I am a marriage and family therapist with over 20 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life changes, relationships issues, career challenges, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and family of origin work. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to step forward and try to change your life. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
