My name is Leahmontaine Barrow and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

My therapy approach is to build a relationship with my clients. My clients can trust me to share difficult emotions, feel safe enough to talk about things they are struggling with and feel comfortable enough to know that I will not judge anything they do bring to therapy.

In addition to my current position at a local mental health facility, I have been in the social services/mental health field for quite some time.
