Leah received specialized training to deliver culturally competent care to clients with diverse cultural and religious identities. Prior to that experience, Leah completed an externship at the Rutgers Tourette’s Syndrome Clinic where she treated clients with Tourette’s Syndrome and accompanying comorbidities, most prominently OCD, ADHD, and social anxiety.
