Leah CerfClinical Social Work/Therapist, LMSW

About

If you’re a professional, student, or creative who appears successful on the outside but feels stuck, anxious, and overwhelmed inside, you’re in the right place! I offer therapy that’s active, warm, and direct, with room for humor when it helps. Together we’ll identify patterns holding you back, calm your nervous system, and create meaningful shifts so you feel grounded, confident, and connected in work, relationships, and life. I’m LGBTQ+ affirming and trauma-informed, and help clients move beyond anxious spirals, perfectionism, insecure attachment, and unfulfilling relationship dynamics. My approach is integrative, blending my trainings in EMDR, ACT/CBT, mindfulness, DBT, and somatic work with psychodynamic insight. We’ll look at how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape your present, while using evidence-based tools to help you deeply know yourself, regulate emotions, heal attachment wounds, and shift cycles that keep you stuck.
