Family therapy and counseling in Santa Cruz, CA

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a DNP (Doctor of Nursing Practice) degree from the University of Massachusetts Global. I have experience working with adolescents and adults in multiple settings facing various complex mental health issues, including OCD, depression, anxiety, ADHD and mood disorders.

When a teen is struggling, the whole family can feel it. I work with teens and parents facing emotional overwhelm, behavior challenges, family conflict, and stress. Therapy with me is supportive, engaging, and focused on practical tools you can use in daily life. My goal is to help families feel more connected, understood, and hopeful.

Hello, I’m Leah, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges and strengthen their relationships. I provide therapy through telehealth, offering accessible, compassionate care in a safe and supportive environment.

I earned my Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy and Clinical Counseling from the University of Massachusetts Global and have experience working with adults, children, and families. My clinical background includes supporting clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, and stress management.

In my practice, I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and somatic therapies to help clients build insight, resilience, and lasting change.

My goal is to create a collaborative space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move toward healing and growth at your own pace.

I am passionate of all things mental health! I enjoy working in crisis situations, and supporting individuals going through the ups and lows of life. My goal is to sprinkle confidence and joy into life

I believe healing is not a destination but a journey—one that you don’t have to walk alone. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, identity exploration, or old wounds that still feel present, I offer a space where all parts of you are welcomed. You bring your lived experience; I bring compassion, perspective, and steady support.

My approach is collaborative, rooted in curiosity, emotional safety, and the belief that you already hold the wisdom needed to heal. Therapy is not about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you build a deeper, more trusting relationship with yourself so you can show up more fully in your life. If you’re ready to start that journey, I’m here to walk with you.
