Leah Finn, LMFT

I have had only one appointment with Ms. Finn, but she has already impressed me in that first interview with her understanding on many levels of my feelings, actions and concerns. The session closed with my belief that I would be supported as we continue this "journey" and will learn life lessons that I may have forgotten.

Leah is an amazing therapist. She's given me plenty of tools to help with my anxiety and depression. She's been very understanding, reassuring, and just the best. I couldn't ask for a better therapist.

Leah has changed my life like no other therapist has, and I think it’s the combo of her and the medium of BetterHelp. She is my cheerleader but also makes me do the hardworking. The proof is in the pudding: I’m in the first healthy relationship of my life after only 6 months with her. I am not kidding when I say she changed my life.

Leah's great. I'm sticking with her.

Leah has been such an excellent support. She is knowledgeable, insightful and always present. She gives highly useful feedback, and I feel like she is able to meet me where I am emotionally and help me work on the things that are most important.

Leah is exceptionally warm, genuine, and creates a real sense of safety and security with her presence. She is an incredible listener - both to the ins and outs of life, and about what I wanted to get out of therapy and how I thought I might get there. Her empowerment model leaves me with tools, skills, and mantras that are all my own, created ways to cope healthily. She often used the metaphor that she is just holding up a mirror, guiding me through my process where I am doing all of the work. I am extremely grateful for how my time working with Leah has strengthened my sense of self, and empowered me to meet my therapeutic goals.

Leah is an incredible counselor. She is open-minded, which is a characteristic I have a difficult time finding in individuals. She listens to my concerns and doesn’t blame me for past mistakes. She helps me think of ways to deal with future issues and helps me think about things in a more positive manner. I’ve been feeling like a better version of myself since beginning therapy, and I know a lot of the reason is because of Leah.

Leah Finn is an excellent therapist! She is there every step of the way, and provides multiple avenues for you to safely escape negative feelings like anxiety and depression.

I don't know anyone in my immediate community that has ever sought mental well-being through therapy, so I thought it to be a drastic option. The fact that I decided to give this a try is a testament to the horrible place I was in. Within a couple of months, Leah guided through various exercises to overcome several mental blocks. I am doing much better now, but when these low feelings start to come back I have skills to cope and keep them at bay. Would definitely recommend working with Leah!

I recently started therapy with Leah- to say she is great would be an understatement. She messages to check in on how I am doing/feeling a few days after our video chat as well. It is really easy to talk to her without feeling judged or looked down upon- she has a lot of tips on how I can better communicate with others and has even got me into meditation. I've told a few friends about how great my sessions are with her- everyone says I'm really lucky because finding a good therapist you mesh with is hard to find :)

Totally recommend :)

Written on Jun 12, 2019 after therapy with Leah for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and anger management

So far this has been a great set up for me. My counselor is getting to know me and we’re having regular meetings even though I travel a ton and have a crazy schedule. I wouldn’t be able to receive counseling any other way.

She's so nice. It's really nice to talk to a therapist who is empathetic. Having someone who has grappled with their gender as a therapist has been refreshing. So far I feel that I am being seen as an individual and am being given a lot of ways to learn and grow emotionally.

I have found comfort and understanding with Leah, I feel validated and understood and like I am moving in the right direction with someone by me who can help.

Leah is fantastic and I appreciate the patience and care with which they have handled me and my situation. She's been a fantastic influence on my life and I would not have reached this level of emotional stability this quickly without them.

Written on May 13, 2019 after therapy with Leah for 10 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and self esteem

I've been working with Leah for a few months now, and she's absolutely amazing. I've never had such a successful relationship with a counselor/therapist in my years of searching for one. I have a lot of issues with trauma and am very slow to trust, but felt safe with her right away. She has a super open mind and a goal-oriented approach to therapy, which I love. She also makes sure to check in with me via message, which I deeply appreciate. :)

Leah is a genuinely caring person and I would recommend her to everyone. It’s apparent that she wants to help find solutions by the way she responds and the variety of techniques she offers. I tend to be a shy person and struggle reaching out for help, but Leah’s warm presence makes it comfortable and safe to ask for help.

Leah is so amazing. She has great insight and expertise in every aspect I have thrown out there. So far my expectations have been met beyond belief.

Written on Feb 27, 2019 after therapy with Leah for 2 weeks

Leah has been a true guide on my path, keeping motivated when I'm depressed and focused when I feel lost and all over the place. I've had sessions with other counselors and never found any chemistry and better help is a godsend for bringing us together. The way she goes about bringing me to solutions can be so subtle and powerful that I don't always realize she's guiding me to the answer until I feel like I've come it on my own and that is truly something special. Thank you, Leah for all your hard work and faith in me. It's only been 6 months and I've already come so far.

Leah is awesome! This is my first experience with any type of counseling and she makes me feel very comfortable. She supports me in how I feel but at the same time helps to push me out of my comfort zone to reach my goals. I'm looking forward to continuing our journey together.

I have only had a chance to meet via video once, but so far have found her to be a good listener and kept the conversation focused. She was helpful with feedback and empathy. Leah has stayed in touch via notes before and after session which is very helpful.

Written on Jun 08, 2018 after therapy with Leah for 2 months on issues concerning lgbt

Leah is great therapist. She was always caring and compassionate, she made sure would always listen to me and allowed me to really express my problems. Leah helped me learn new coping mechanisms and taught me a lot in the couple months we worked together. Unfortunately I no longer can work with her, but I really appreciated the time she was my counselor. Thank you Leah
