Congratulations on a first step towards getting help for yourself or your family. I specialize in Relationships, Complex Trauma, and ADHD across the lifespan. You may be experiencing slipping work/academic performance or relationship conflict related to anxiety, depressed mood and low motivation, cycles of stress and depletion, distractibility, or anger from unresolved trauma. My approach begins with listening. You have feelings to share, a story to tell, or persistent challenge you can’t seem to overcome. I’m here to provide a safe, validating place to process your experience, and some unique ways of exploring your emotional world.

Your therapist should be someone you trust and feel comfortable talking with. I work hard to create a safe and inviting environment for my clients. I have worked in the mental health field for over seven years, serving children, adolescents, and adults in community and school-based settings. I have experience working with clients who are dealing with ADHD, trauma, grief, school-related issues, adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, and other emotional and behavioral struggles.

My name is Leah, I wear many hats in this big bad world. I am a mother, a friend, a wife, a sister, and an individual with lived experience with ADHD and Anxiety. I feel like all these hats give me a unique lens to support others through their healing process. I join/support with an individual through empathy, honesty and direct feedback.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or ADHD that affects your ability to function in your relationships, your work, and all the things you need to do to get through the daily grind? Do you feel exhausted and overwhelmed, wondering if there's even a light at the end of the tunnel? Do you ever wonder if life really can get better? Many people are struggling with anxiety and depression. Others are trying to overcome childhood abuse and trauma, and still others are trying to overcome the shame and frustration of constantly struggling with accomplishing their day-to-day tasks. I believe that there is hope for a better life.

As an LCPC in Maryland, I specialize in treating kids and adults who experience varied roadblocks in life. I take a collaborative approach to counseling and therapy, in that you and I will together determine your best treatment, and I have a deep respect for your courage in seeking help. Issues may include anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, school difficulties, PTSD, relationship concerns, disordered personality traits, women’s issues, addiction, codependency, grief, disordered eating, family of origin difficulties, attachment, LGBTQ, transgender, trauma and abuse, parenting, self-esteem, and career difficulties, among others.

I am so glad that you are here. Taking the steps toward healing is no easy task, so if no one has said it, I am so proud of you. Society spends so much time trying to tell us who we are and what we need to be that sometimes we forget who we are and what we are worth. The hardest part of the therapeutic process is showing up. Healing can be complicated and scary at times. However, through this process, I hope you discover all the beautiful qualities that make you exceptional.

My practice focuses on working with individuals who struggle with ADHD, Depression, Bipolar, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorder, Trauma, Relationship/Familial issues. I truly believe that treatment should be client-lead as each client has their own unique, individual needs that will support their growth and progress. I strive to build a strong foundation, based on trust and safety with my clients, as I believe it is instrumental in their therapeutic success.

Now Accepting New Patients for In Person ONLY in PA. The journey through life is full of ups and downs and sometimes those downs can create barriers that make us feel stuck and can impact our ability to enjoy the ups. Though it might not feel like it, you have the power and strength to overcome those struggles; it just might take a little help, and hey, we ALL can use a little help navigating the curveballs of life! My mission is to provide that guidance to help unlock the answers within you to create that change you’ve been wishing for.

It is natural to have moments in life when you feel depressed or anxious, and especially if you are in a certain stage of life which requires more support, or if life simply threw you a curve ball. Everyone needs to be able to set aside time for themselves, process through their experiences, and then work towards identifying what they need and how to get there. I provide a comfortable, safe, non-judgmental space in which to do that work, collaboratively and creatively. I want to empower you and to help you feel like, "I've got this. I can get through it." Because you can.

Taking care of your whole self means focusing on the parts that are blooming and the parts that are healing. It can be important to have a calming and non-judgmental space to process your growth. My focus is to align with your needs to create the opportunity to reach your goals for mental health. I believe every person is capable of achieving self-love and happiness. I utilize person-centered and strengths-based approach to empower personal growth.

Need help getting through a recent breakup? Feeling like you won’t beat dating and find a relationship? You didn’t go into your relationship thinking it would have to end. Nonetheless, here you are, post-breakup, hurting, avoiding, maybe even dating, and hating every second of it. You want a relationship, but you keep self-sabotaging. You push partners away, you get called "too clingy," or you keep choosing people who treat you poorly. You’ve got trust issues, maybe you’re hung up on an ex, it’s hard to find genuine connection with others, and you’re feeling low. But the feelings feel too big to face head on by yourself...

If you are seeking therapy and/or support in personal growth and emotional well-being, I have experience working with individuals, couples, premarital couples, and Veterans with ages ranging from 17 to senior adults.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to undergo the therapeutic experience. It's not an easy process and I want to support clients through this journey. The journey is a collaborative effort, and clients should be ready to work to become the person they want to be. In life, we go through many trials and tribulations and I strive to create a safe space for my clients to open up about their issues and heal. I think we can work through the struggles of your life together by building a strong therapeutic alliance.
