Meet Leah Hoffman

Welcome! I’m Leah. 

I’m a lifelong learner, connector of people, and someone who finds joy in small, meaningful moments. I draw inspiration from the beauty of nature, the energy of vibrant communities, and the ongoing pursuit of uncovering my most authentic self.

I am also a licensed therapist, coach, and couples counselor - and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. 

My deep desire to understand myself and others is what first led me to the world of therapy. Through professional training, diverse clinical experiences, and my own healing journey, I discovered a calling: to devote my time and energy to supporting and empowering others to believe in themselves, build healthy relationships, and create lives where they feel safe, authentic, and recognized.

My Professional Path

Early in my career, I worked with a wide range of populations and practiced in various modalities such as family systems theory, trauma treatment, and couples therapy. These experiences gave me a deep understanding of how to create safety and connection, support effective trauma healing, and recognize how our relationship dynamics and histories shape our present-day lives.

Today, I specialize in working with motivated adults and couples who want to deepen connection, cultivate inner safety, and navigate life with clarity and confidence. Together, we explore how attachment history, relationship dynamics, and societal messages shape experiences - both past and present. My work integrates evidence-based approaches while staying deeply attuned to the relational and emotional complexity each client or couple brings.

Are we a good fit?

I work with adults and couples who are ready to look honestly at their lives and explore what they truly want - especially in relationships with themselves and others. I’m most helpful to clients who are motivated to do the kind of work that isn’t always easy, but leads to meaningful change.

The work we will do together is deep and intentional. Together, we identify the dynamics shaping your relationships, heal relational wounds, and reconnect with the truest version of yourself, the one beneath all the noise and expectations of life. If you're ready for meaningful change, we might be a great fit.

A little about me beyond the therapy space

While I’m deeply passionate about the work I do, I also believe in living a full and grounded life outside of session. The things that bring me joy and keep me connected to myself are an essential part of how I show up for others.

When I’m not working, you can find me exploring the outdoors, traveling, nurturing my curiosity through ongoing learning, writing short stories from the best coffee shop in town, sweating it out at hot yoga, and befriending all of the neighborhood animals.
