I am a Clinical Psychologist licensed in Delaware and Iowa. I earned my doctorate (Psy.D., Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology) from the Fuller School of Psychology at Fuller Theological Seminary in California.

I have over 10 years of clinical experience working with diverse populations in the East Coast, Midwest, and Los Angeles area in a variety of settings, such as outpatient behavioral agencies, a psychiatric hospital focusing on chemical dependency, a university counseling center, and a school district. I also received a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Counseling from Hong Kong.

I provide psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families dealing with a wide variety of concerns. My clinical interests include anxiety and mood disorders, trauma recovery, grief and loss, family of origin issues, ADHD, relational distress, perfectionism, cross-cultural adjustments, and spirituality. I was trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in 2021 and my specialty area is to help individuals with complex childhood traumas and PTSD using attachment-informed EMDR interventions.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Temple University and my Master of Social Work from Indiana University. With over 10 years of experience, I support individuals in managing anxiety, navigating depression, and healing from past trauma.

My approach blends evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with a spiritually grounded perspective. While therapy is rooted in clinical skill, I also create space for deeper connection—often integrating spiritual awareness into the work for those who are open to it. I believe healing is not just mental, but also deeply internal and, at times, spiritual.

I have helped individuals sort through hectic times. If you need someone to talk to with and empathetic ear, then feel free to reach out. I am accepting new clients evening hours after 8:30pm cst for clients in Texas, New Jersey, Utah, and Iowa. I have an additional focus on Men's Issues related to Infidelity, sexual dysfunction, and sex/porn addiction. I provide a safe space to work through these issues.

There are seasons in life when you're trying to understand who you are while also carrying the expectations of everyone around you.

Today is my favorite day because it is today.

Hi, I’m LeAnn. I’m a licensed mental health counselor who works with adults and teenagers from 13 to 99. I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and other emotional challenges.

❤️ I’m deeply passionate about this work because I’ve lived it. My own recovery journey has shown me just how vital mental health is—not only for healing, but for being able to show up fully in relationships and in life. I believe that if I don’t care for my own mental health, I can’t truly support others or engage in the kind of meaningful connections we all deserve. That understanding drives my commitment to walk alongside my clients with authenticity, empathy, and purpose.

💬 Whether you're just beginning your journey or continuing to work through long-standing issues, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, clarity, and care.
