Hi! I’m Leah Tharp, a resident in counseling who works with preteens (11+), teens, young adults and adults looking for more peace, confidence, and meaning in their lives. Being a counselor informs how I approach therapy, both from my educational background and past work experiences in that I view each person as the expert on themselves and myself as a guide. Together in therapy we will look at the forces that have shaped you and your beliefs to help you better understand yourself, your environment, and your thoughts and feelings. I am a graduate of the University of Lynchburg and Marymount University and also a newlywed!

You’ve been told to “get over it,” that you “shouldn’t feel that way,” and that you’re “so negative.” So you tried to ignore your pain and it got stronger. You reprimanded yourself when difficult emotions surfaced. You found yourself feigning happiness to please those you spend time with. You’ve bottled up the past, feel unsteady in the present, and fear the future. Your ability to balance family commitments, work responsibilities, and social obligations is put to the test each day. You’re losing sight of who you are and where you’re going, but you haven’t lost your hope.

Please visit the link beneath my picture to tour our website and explore all of the clinicians available at The Healing Project! We live in such a busy and changing world. Sometimes it feels like we are drowning, like we can't possibly make it another day, or get all the things done. Too often we forget to step back and breathe, focus on what isn't working, and make positive changes to experience life to its fullest. Or maybe we don't know where to start, or the journey feels too daunting. If you are ready to simplify life, enjoy life, and find solutions, I am here to walk with you on that journey!
