About Leah
Leah Pace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, mood and anxiety symptoms, grief, and parenting stress. Her background includes outpatient clinics, inpatient behavioral health, school-based work, group therapy, crisis intervention, and long-term care settings.
Leah focuses on the everyday problems that make life feel heavier. She helps people manage anger, depression, anxiety, and the practical fallout of trauma. She also supports those facing commitment questions, codependency, blended family issues, and challenges tied to adoption or caregiver strain.
In sessions she uses straightforward methods from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness. That means she listens to what matters to the person and then introduces skills or practices that aim to change thinking, attention, or behavior. Sessions are often a mix of talking, skill practice, and goal-setting.
Leah draws on experience with crisis work and long-term care to help people manage immediate stress and plan for longer term coping. She has worked with PTSD symptoms, disruptive mood concerns, and situations involving domestic violence and separation.
People who prefer direct feedback and practical steps tend to do well with her approach. She asks what a better week would look like and then helps map small changes toward that goal.

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help when someone feels stuck by avoidance or unclear about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful habits. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) involves techniques to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and associated reactions; it is commonly used for trauma-related symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try based on their goals and preferences. That may mean starting with talking and skills practice, then adding mindfulness or EMDR-style work if it fits the client’s needs.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals adapt techniques like CBT exercises and mindfulness practices to work over video or phone, helping clients apply skills in day-to-day life.
