Leah Goodman is already helping me so much and I’ve only had 2 sessions with her. She will text with me in times of need and has been helping me process things that have been on my mind for months.

Leah is extremely qualified.
She makes me feel comfortable sharing difficult emotions and situations, takes the time to understand my needs through active listening during sessions as well as thoughtful reading of journal entries, provides honest feedback and suggestions, provides useful work to do in between sessions, and checks in regularly.
Very happy to have been matched with Leah!
