I’m Leah. Oftentimes kids and teens’ feelings are invalidated or told\nthat what they are experiencing is “not a big deal.” That can be very\nfrustrating\, especially as a teen!

I understand how trauma and life experiences can shape a child\nor teen’s life which is why I am so passionate about helping youth through\nthese vulnerable years. Growing up with constant access to tech and social\nmedia\, especially during unprecedented times\, is very tough! I want to support\nyou through it all. \nBrooke Bendix\, AM\, LCSW is the founder of Therapyology and a Licensed\nClinical Social Worker who specializes in individual and group therapy for\nkids\, teens and adults. Brooke has over 16 years of clinical experience\,\ntraining\, and education in the field of social work and child development.
