About Leah
Leah Pace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience helping people navigate difficult life moments. She earned her Master of Social Work and has worked across clinics, hospitals, schools, and long-term care settings. Leah greets new clients with a straightforward, caring approach that focuses on practical steps toward clearer goals.
Leah draws on a range of clinical approaches to match each person's needs. She uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses client-centered techniques that let clients lead the pace and focus of their work. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy tools are used to build tolerance for strong feelings and to clarify values that guide choices.
In practice, Leah helps people cope with trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and stress. She supports those managing relationship and family concerns, anger, intimacy questions, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions. She also lists coping with natural or human-caused disaster among her focus areas.
Her background includes work in crisis intervention, group therapy, case management, and behavioral health hospitals. That variety informs a practical style - direct when needed and supportive throughout. Sessions tend to center on clear goals, small steps, and skills you can use between meetings.
Leah works with people in Louisiana and offers services in English. If you want someone who is goal-focused yet non-judgmental, she may be a good fit to help you move forward.
How Leah’s approaches translate to online work
Leah uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that make life harder. CBT often involves setting small, practical tasks and tracking progress between sessions to build new habits.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking meaningful steps even when strong emotions are present. This approach helps when people feel stuck or are coping with loss, grief, or major life changes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Leah will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then adapt methods that fit their needs. She encourages trying techniques and checking in to see what feels most helpful as therapy progresses.
