About Leah

Leah Murray is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Florida who focuses on helping people cope with major life changes. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at helping people find clearer steps forward.

Leah uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to help change unhelpful thinking and behavior.

In sessions she creates a calm, non-judgmental space for people to talk through hard feelings. She helps clients name emotions like guilt, shame, or emptiness and then build small, manageable strategies to feel better. Communication struggles and intimacy-related issues are frequent topics she addresses.

Leah has six years of clinical experience working with adult clients. That experience includes supporting people with parenting stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, and trauma or abuse histories. She also assists those navigating adoption, fertility, and family of origin concerns.

Her work is collaborative and goal-focused. Leah helps people set realistic steps, practice new skills, and track progress. People who want help with coping during life transitions or improving relationships may find this approach useful.

How Leah's approaches fit online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and trust. Online sessions can focus on identifying these patterns and practicing new ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. CBT work online often includes homework, behavioral experiments, and short skill practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Leah will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort, and the issues they bring. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, scheduling during a break, cutting out travel time, or doing shorter check-ins when energy is low. It also allows continued work through life transitions when attending in person would be difficult. Licensed professionals can help tailor session length and homework to what works best for a client’s daily routine.
