Get to Know Me

Leah K Barison, LPCC

I provide genuine, thoughtful, and empathic care to help you feel better able to take on life's challenges. My therapeutic style is warm and engaged, with the intention to foster insight and facilitate your desired change. I have seen my clients experience improvements in mood, relationships, confidence, sense of purpose, and achievement.

​

My approach draws from evidence-based modalities to provide the highest standard of care. I have several specializations which include:

​

• addiction, substance use, and recovery

• adjustment

• anxiety

• depression

• ocd

• self-esteem

• college mental health

• relationships

• work/life balance

• life transitions

​​

In addition to my private practice, I also maintain a position as a therapist at Loyola Marymount University. Prior to opening my doors in Los Angeles, I lived in Boston where I was a therapist at Boston University and in private practice. I have over eight years of experience helping people achieve their vision of success. My role as your therapist is a privilege; I take great care to meet you wherever you are emotionally so that I may join your journey and help you make the changes that will lead to the life that you desire.
