About Leah

Leah Pace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Louisiana with 15 years of experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns along with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. Leah also addresses intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.

She has worked across clinic, community, inpatient, school-based, group therapy, crisis intervention, and long-term care settings. That range gives her experience with PTSD symptoms, mood disorders, grief, and anger. Her background includes case management and supporting people through transitions like divorce or caregiving strain.

Leah’s approach is direct and client-centered. Sessions are practical and focused on what a person wants to change. She uses concrete tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to help people manage thoughts, behaviors, and stress reactions.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify values and take workable steps toward them. For trauma-related work, she includes approaches that aim to reduce the impact of distressing memories and regain everyday functioning.

Leah works with adults on issues around relationships, identity, and life stressors. She supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, codependency, communication and commitment problems, and concerns related to BDSM and kink culture.

Sessions are conducted in English and Leah does not accept international clients. Costs vary by location and services use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, follow the site prompts to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

BHow sessions work

How clinical approaches are used in online sessions

Leah draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing specific skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger. ACT emphasizes clarifying personal values and taking small workable steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Leah will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life demands. That process may include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as needed.

Confirm the current session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or reducing the need to be on camera when someone prefers audio only. These practical benefits help people keep appointments and apply skills in their everyday routines.
