More about Leah

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Welcome! I know it is a big decision to engage in therapy and I’m excited to help guide you while you achieve your goals.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and graduated with my MSW from Stephen F. Austin State University in Texas. I have worked as a Social Worker for 16 years in a variety of behavioral health settings including outpatient settings (clinic and community based), inpatient setting (behavioral health hospital), school based, group therapy, crisis intervention, long term care facilities for the aging, as well as case management. I believe in helping individuals and families improve their entire system and environment that surrounds them. The majority of my experience has been in helping clients overcome or cope with symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, grief, and anger management. I also have experience assisting individuals cope with trauma and am trained in EMDR as well as TF-CBT.

My style is caring, direct, and client centered. I want to help others achieve what they want in life. I am non-judgmental and believe that everyone can improve their quality of life and happiness, but some people require different routes to achieve this. Life is hard so it is okay to ask for some help to find our way! I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I have really enjoyed working with Leah. She lets me have a space where I can process what is happening in my life and I feel like we have focused on a variety of goals and I now have a new perspective on things. I appreciate her caring demeanor and it has been very encouraging.

She's great and I can tell she's really good at what she does. She's patient and I can tell she truly listens to me.

Reviewed April 2021

My two previous councilors where terrible at responding back to me and keeping appointments. Mrs. Pace not only checks in with me on an almost daily basis but also keeps her appointments. I would absolutely recommend her to friends or family.

Reviewed February 2021

As an immigrant, Leah has helped me navigate the cultural differences when it comes to relationships. Knowing this helped me a lot when I was going through a rough breakup with my partner who is American. Leah's perspective has helped me understand the nuances in how I and my partner show love for each other differently, leading me to a very serious and deep retrospective of a 5-year relationship that ended. I believe with her help, I can have a better understanding of myself, which in the long run will help me through life in general.
