Leah Stone (Steindorf)
Counseling Intern
Leah is completing her Master’s in Counseling at Lewis & Clark College, and earning a certificate in Ecotherapy. She takes a holistic, collaborative, client-centered approach to counseling with a deep respect for the complexity of being human and the healing power of nature. Her work is grounded in humanistic existentialism, transpersonal therapy, ecopsychology and Indigenous perspectives and teachings. Leah integrates Internal Family Systems with somatic, creative and Earth-based practices, supporting clients in processing past experiences while attending to how they show up in their current lives, and building reliable foundations for facing life’s challenges. Believing people are inherently good and doing their best with the resources they have, Leah meets clients with deep presence, compassion, curiosity and non-judgment. She holds a safe and grounded space for her clients to be fully witnessed on their unique healing path.
With a background in Wilderness Therapy, Leah supports clients experiencing grief, loss, trauma, shame, anger, depression and anxiety. As an immigrant herself with an international background, she is attuned to diverse cultures and especially passionate about supporting those navigating traumatic grief, ambiguous loss and multicultural identities, including immigrants and Third Culture Kids. Outside of work, Leah enjoys time in nature, playing with her puppy and exploring new foods.
