She/Her
Léah
is a therapist at Two Chairs.
Léah specializes in working with clients who are coping with complex trauma, childhood trauma, and obsessive compulsive behaviors. Léah also works with couples who are working through infidelity, communication breakdowns, unmet needs, and other relationship conflicts. Many of the people she works with are part of the LGBTQIA+ community. They identify as transgender, gender non-conforming, non-binary, and gender fluid. She also works with couples through issues related to gender identity, ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, BDSM, and kink. She meets each person with empathy and utilizes trauma-informed care.
In her spare time, Léah enjoys attempting to get through her ever growing TBR book list, spending time with her fiancé, planning their elopement, playing with their 5 cats, visiting with her family both near where she lives and in San Diego, and going to Disneyland. She's also currently pursuing a PhD in Psychology, specializing in Gender and Sexual Fluidity.
