About Leah
Leah Murray is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She draws on six years of clinical experience to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Leah aims to make sessions straightforward and focused on practical change.
Leah uses approaches rooted in attachment work and cognitive behavioral strategies. She helps people untangle patterns that come from past relationships and teaches skills to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
How Leah works
Sessions often include talking through current problems and trying small, doable steps between meetings. Her practice also addresses parenting stress, caregiver fatigue, and issues related to adoption, foster care, and fatherhood. She works with people facing fertility-related distress, postpartum depression, and the emotional fallout of trauma and abuse.
Many clients come to her for help with low self-esteem, jealousy, impulsivity, and the emptiness that can follow big life changes. In therapy Leah focuses on clear goals and practical tools. She supports people in repairing attachment wounds, managing anxiety, and improving communication.
Treatment plans are shaped around each person’s needs and pace rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Leah offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. All work is conducted in English and is provided according to Florida practice standards.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

How attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions use conversation to identify those patterns and practice new ways of relating that feel safer and more reliable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice thoughts that drive anxiety or low mood and then try out different responses. In remote sessions Leah can teach these skills, run brief exercises, and assign simple practice between meetings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Leah will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether attachment work, CBT, trauma-focused techniques, or a mix will best meet the person’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer discussions and skill-building while phone sessions can work better when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins or support between sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
