About Leah

Leah Syberg is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, anger, depression, and issues stemming from trauma and abuse. Leah also focuses on family of origin concerns such as attachment and abandonment worries.

She uses straightforward talk and practical skills work in sessions. Leah draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), the Gottman Method, and Mindfulness Therapy to help people recognize patterns and try new ways of relating.

In early sessions she helps clients name the repeating roles and expectations they grew up with. She pays attention to how those patterns show up now - in how a person manages conflict, closeness, or commitment. Sessions include smaller experiments and coping tools aimed at daily life.

Leah often works with people managing co-occurring concerns such as substance use, codependency, or mood symptoms alongside relationship difficulties. She blends skills practice with reflecting on family history so new choices feel possible.

She accepts clients in Florida and also works with international clients in English. Leah asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin work together. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Leah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes. CBT is practical and helps with anxiety, depression, and everyday stress by giving step-by-step strategies to try between sessions.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. DBT-style tools can be useful for managing strong emotions and improving how someone shows up in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Leah will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit work, caregiving, and appointments into busy days. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or choose quieter surroundings that suit the person’s schedule.
