**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** You give so much of yourself to others. Still, you're falling short of expectations. That unconventional perspective of yours has fueled your creativity, but you worry that people don’t really “get” you. It doesn’t help that you have anxiety in social situations. Even your closest relationship feels increasingly tense and disconnected. My name's Leah and I help individuals and couples like you find your way to calm, balance, and connection.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

Taking that first step to reach out for help and talk with a therapist is a courageous act, particularly for survivors of traumatic events such as exposure to violence, childhood neglect, or sexual abuse. It's hard to know who you can trust when you've been hurt so much in the past, and perhaps are struggling with what therapists call "complex trauma" or "dissociation". You deserve to receive support as you work to recover and pursue the full, joyous life that is possible - even after horrible things have happened.
