About Leah
Leah Murray is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Florida who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and related concerns. She uses clear, practical methods to help clients take small steps forward when stress feels overwhelming. Leah works with adults on common worries like anxiety, depression, and parenting stress.
She also supports people coping with trauma, relationship strains, and changes such as becoming a parent or navigating adoption and foster care issues.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be straightforward and manageable for busy lives. Her work often centers on attachment and relationship patterns. Leah helps people notice how early experiences shape current reactions and communication.
That often leads to changes in how people relate to partners, family of origin, and themselves. Leah blends client-centered care with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused methods. In sessions she listens, reflects, and introduces exercises that people can try between meetings.
The focus is on usable skills for emotion regulation, managing intrusive thoughts, and reducing avoidance. With six years of clinical experience, Leah brings steady support for issues such as compassion fatigue, postpartum depression, ADHD-related struggles, and parenting challenges. She also addresses concerns like guilt, shame, jealousy, and intimacy-related problems.
Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. People who choose Leah can expect sessions by phone, video, live chat, or text messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions are scheduled after a short matching questionnaire.
Approach-driven care through online sessions
Leah uses attachment-based work to help people see patterns in their relationships and how early experiences affect current reactions. This approach is useful for issues like intimacy, family of origin concerns, and attachment difficulties.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new, practical behaviors. CBT is often used for reducing anxiety, managing intrusive thoughts, and improving mood through small experiments and skills practice.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Leah discusses goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and she adjusts methods as progress is made. The process is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be lower bandwidth, live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while using the approaches described above.
