About Leah

I have always enjoyed providing love and support to those in need. I pursued my passion for helping other with a masters degree in social work where I am now able to provide professional clinical services. The role of in home support is still a passion that I like to fulfill; as developing those personal bonds and authentic companionship is something I do best and find fulfilling. Over the years of providing person centered care, I have helped the lives of others and their loved ones in need of 'that something extra'. I still maintain valuable relationships with several individuals I've supported. This to me, is more than a job- it's friendship, compassion, and a way a life.
