About Leah

Leah D'agostino is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, grief, low self-esteem, anger, bipolar challenges, and coping with life changes.

Leah focuses on practical steps that help people manage day-to-day difficulties. Sessions tend to look at what is happening now and what can be changed to ease distress. She uses methods that encourage clearer thinking, emotional regulation, and better connection in relationships.

Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based approaches alongside client-centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas. That means Leah often helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new behaviors, and pay attention to values and relationships when making choices.

Leah often addresses problems that come up around caregiving, codependency, commitment and communication issues, and major life transitions such as divorce or aging concerns. She also supports people dealing with substance use and the emotional fallout from shame, guilt, or abandonment.

In session she tends to be straightforward and goal-focused. Conversations include skill-building, behavioral experiments, and work on patterns that repeat in relationships. People can expect clear explanations of techniques and practical homework to try between meetings.

BHow sessions work

How Leah’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small committed actions toward those values. It can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and when life feels stuck.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to change how someone feels. It often suits problems like anxiety, anger, and mood shifts where practical skill-building matters.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections. It can be useful for communication problems, codependency, abandonment concerns, and repeating relationship cycles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leah will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. She treats the process as a collaboration and will explain why a technique is chosen and how it links to the client's goals.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets clients practice skills in their everyday routines while getting guidance from a licensed professional.
