All About Therapy
Learn About My Methods
Psychotherapists help people of all ages live happier, healthier, and more productive lives. Through the use of various psychotherapy methods and collaborative treatment measures, my clients develop life-changing habits to help them cope with many of life’s obstacles. My therapy sessions are designed to dissect personal issues and provide individuals with effective tools to help them see the glass half full instead of half empty.
My Story
A Licensed Professional Here to Guide You
I’m Leah Beck, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida, here to guide you through life’s most complex and difficult challenges. I truly care about my clients’ well-being and guarantee top of the line counseling and therapeutic services catered to your needs.
Since 2012, I have provided a number of specialized therapeutic services to those dealing with challenging life experiences. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of Florida and my master’s in Mental Health Counseling at Rollins College. My clinical experience began with treating individuals in crisis and answering calls on a crisis hotline. I spent several rewarding years working with college students before the demanding, yet gratifying opportunity of counseling at-risk youth and families. I have provided counseling in homes, schools, offices, and via teletherapy.
Patient well-being is my number one priority, and I will always go above and beyond to help you overcome any obstacles you may face. There are many reasons I love what I do. I am continually honored to walk with women and men on their journeys and find it to be a privilege to play a positive part in their stories. To see my clients claim their voice, to see them reach that point of discovery, accepting who they are; that is what gets me up in the morning. I cannot think of a more rewarding career, one designed solely to decrease suffering and improve quality of life. It is truly an honor to facilitate the development of another's healthy, happy lifestyle.

Integrative Approach
I utilize an integrative approach to counseling, allowing me to incorporate a variety of clinical styles and techniques (solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, client-centered, etc.) lending me the flexibility necessary to best serve my clients’ needs. I am also fully certified as a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Instructor (MBSR). I have long held that self-care is vital to living a happy, well-balanced, and fulfilling life. I am a firm believer in practicing what I preach and choose to live the same healthy lifestyle I encourage my clients to maintain.
Extensive Experience
I provide treatment and facilitate growth to individuals who struggle with depression, anger, self-esteem, familial discord, relationship conflict, anxiety, body image, grief and loss, self-harming behaviors, and suicidal ideation. I have led psychoeducational groups for individuals with substance abuse issues. I have also had the privilege of co-facilitating process groups for LGBTQ individuals, which enabled them to voice their concerns and frustrations about their struggles concerning coming out and coping with daily obstacles.
Individual Therapy
In my therapy sessions, we’ll work to solve current problems and improve positive thinking and behavior. I will help you re-frame your reactions and provide you with valuable tools to cope with life’s obstacles.
