Population Focus

My name is Léah Ferreira and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am an empathetic, understanding, and compassionate therapist. I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment. My goal is to provide my clients with a space where asking for help is not looked down upon but admired. The first step is always hard and I’m proud of you for being here.

My approach to therapy is holistic, eclectic, and client-centered. I work with clients of all ages, including couples and families, to bridge new relationships with their pasts so that their futures can be fulfilling and hopeful.
