About Leah
Leah Farah is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who offers virtual therapy across the state. She sees adolescents and adults and focuses on concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and family issues, and sleep and eating difficulties.
Leah uses a client-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed approach. She treats each person as the expert on their life and collaborates with them to set meaningful goals. Sessions are tailored to the needs and preferences of the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Her work draws from several therapeutic styles, including Attachment-Based approaches, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Leah weaves these methods together with existential ideas, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques to match what a person needs in the moment.
Leah has six years of experience across community mental health and school settings. That background includes individual therapy, family therapy, and case management, which informs how she supports daily challenges and longer-term concerns.
Leah emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as central to progress. She aims to create a space where people feel heard and respected while they work through stress, life transitions, parenting challenges, grief, or difficulties with sleep and self-worth.
How Leah's approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early bonds affect current reactions. It can be useful for relationship strain, family of origin concerns, and attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused and client-centered ideas show up in her way of listening, helping people make sense of feelings and set collaborative goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leah will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Together they decide whether to try CBT skills, attachment-focused exploration, or another mix of methods and then adjust as progress continues.
