Leah Murray, LMHC - Therapist in Florida

About Leah

Leah Murray is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She uses clear, practical strategies to help clients feel steadier and more capable. Leah works from Florida and brings six years of experience to her practice.

Leah creates a calm, non-judgmental space where people can talk about hard things. She listens closely to what matters most and helps pull out small, useful steps.

Background and approach

Conversations often include ways to improve communication, cope with life changes, and rebuild confidence. Her work draws on approaches that view relationships and early bonds as important to healing. She also uses evidence-based techniques to address thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily functioning.

For trauma-related concerns she incorporates trauma-focused strategies to reduce distress and increase safety in everyday life. Leah often helps clients untangle feelings around guilt, shame, abandonment, and family of origin issues. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, fertility or fatherhood concerns, and post-traumatic stress.

Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer understanding rather than jargon. Therapy with Leah can take several forms including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Cost varies with location and is charged through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

Online approaches that focus on relationships and everyday coping

Leah uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds affect current relationships. This approach helps people notice repeating patterns and try new ways of connecting with others.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday stress because it teaches practical skills to change how people think and act.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Leah will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences and adjust methods as therapy progresses. Together they decide which strategies feel most helpful and realistic for day-to-day life.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between sessions. The format also allows Leah to use worksheets, short exercises, and ongoing written check-ins when they support the client’s goals.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
