Welcome! Life often doesn’t go as we expect. This can be a painful experience, especially when frustration and grief seem to overwhelm or even lead us to question ourselves, our identity, and purpose in life. It takes courage to acknowledge this to ourselves and it requires even more courage to share this with another person. Know that seeking counsel, no matter what stage of life you’re in, is a sign of strength on its own. I'm honored to walk with you on this journey.

I hold a masters of science in mental health counseling from Divine Mercy University, in addition to my background in the field of education, ministry, and consecrated life. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, post-traumatic responses, interpersonal or relational difficulties, and grief and loss, utilizing the adaptive information processing (AIP) model and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to inform conceptualized treatment plans for all of my clients. 

LPC-Associate application pending, expected January 2025. 

Leah is an active member of EMDR International Association, American Counseling Association, and American Counseling Association.
