Leah Petrucci, LMHC

Leah Petrucci is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with two decades of experience in the mental health and social work field, including more than seven years of master’s level counseling practice. She draws on a wide range of professional and personal experiences gained across different settings to tailor care to each person she works with.

Her clinical focus includes depressive and bipolar disorders, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, adjustment and life transitions, relationship and codependency concerns, chronic pain and health-related issues, LGBTQ matters, and recovery from divorce or breakup often involving a narcissistic or addicted partner. She also works with adult children of alcoholics and other dysfunctional family dynamics, self-esteem and self-love challenges, and grief. Leah integrates support for addictions after a client successfully completes detox or a formal program, and she has experience working with clients who use Medication Assisted Therapy such as Suboxone or Methadone.

Leah will not treat Cluster B personality disorders such as borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, or antisocial personality disorders at this time. She does, however, support families and loved ones impacted by those relationships to establish effective boundaries and improve communication. She is familiar with a variety of 12-step and mutual support programs and may suggest them as a supplemental resource when appropriate.

Rather than relying on a single method, Leah uses multiple therapeutic approaches to fit individual needs and goals. She practices from a holistic perspective that considers mind, body, spirit, and relationships. Leah completed two years of certified training in spiritually integrated therapy and is a Certified Integrative Mental Health Provider, which means she can incorporate natural and alternative modalities if the client desires. She emphasizes collaboration and the development of a strong therapeutic alliance as the foundation for meaningful work together.
