“Leah is an absolutely wonderful therapist who I cannot recommend enough! I came to her to help me manage my ADHD, which I was diagnosed with recently as an adult, among other aspects of my life I wanted to work on (namely personal relationships and career struggles). She has been an indispensable guide and I feel like I’ve made more progress with her in a few months than I did in years with some of my previous therapists. Leah is warm and empathetic, but she also challenges you for the sake of your best interest. I think that’s what’s felt so engaging and supportive about our work. I can always count on her to hold space for where I am and how I feel, but she is not an echo chamber and helps me focus on what I can do about things I can change, and how I can learn to accept the things I cannot. This has been especially instrumental to better understand my ADHD and find ways to welcome the neurodivergent aspects of myself instead of fighting them and feeling ashamed about them. Our work has helped me reframe so much of my life and I am so infinitely grateful to Leah for that!.”

“Dr. Leah Fischel has provided me with counsel, and practical advice for over a year. My son, who has ADHD and autism, has greatly benefitted from her parenting tips while the supporting content she has recommended has made me a better prepared parent. I highly recommend Dr. Fischel to anyone looking for guidance while raising their neuro-atypical child.”

“I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance we have received from Dr. Fischel.  From the initial evaluation for ADHD to the diagnosis of dyslexia, her expertise has been invaluable.  Dr. Fischel not only provided a clear understanding of my daughter’s challenges but also recommended effective treatment strategies tailored to her needs.  Throughout this journey, her continued support has made a significant difference in my daughter’s life, helping her build confidence and develop essential skills.  I highly recommend Dr. Fischel to any family seeking compassionate and knowledgeable care.”

“When I first met Leah in 2021, my need for counseling and mental health assistance, which I had been putting off for years, had reached a peak during the height of the pandemic. When I finally overcame my anxiety of speaking to a therapist, Leah instantly put me at ease, and made me feel supported and heard. After just a couple sessions, I quickly trusted her and eagerly sought her excellent guidance. I continue to look forward to our conversations, and the solace and relief she provides on rough days.

The best way to describe my experience is to say that my sessions with Leah feel like speaking to the closest friend and confidant - one who can anticipate the guidance I need, even when it's difficult to articulate and ask. Since I began therapy, I'm constantly advocating for it to my friends. And in sharing my personal experience with Leah, I explain to others how fortunate I feel to have been able to find such a great fit in a compassionate and thought-provoking therapist.”
