Hi, I’m Leah Yeshnik, LMFT.
I specialize in supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My approach is honest, direct, and grounded in presence. I listen deeply, reflect thoughtfully, and bring compassion, respect, consistency, humor, and accountability into the therapeutic space. My work is especially attuned to the emotional and relational experiences of women.
I incorporate a range of modalities to meet different learning styles and needs, including expressive arts, journaling, self-reflection, skill building, and somatic practices
I begin our work by exploring what brought you here and what hasn’t been working for you. I help you map the key experiences and patterns in your life so you can see the bigger picture and understand how you arrived at this point. From there, I guide you in creating a clearer, more aligned path forward based on where you want your life to go.
I know what it takes to reparent yourself, rebuild trust, and rediscover your worth. You deserve a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, connected, and confident in yourself, I’m here to walk with you as you move toward meaningful change.
