About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with the state of North Carolina. I began my journey into social work and counseling after being honorably discharged from the US Army in 2006. Due to a lengthy combat tour overseas in Iraq, I was able to gain firsthand knowledge and understanding about the devastating effects Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. Close friends of mine were irrevocably changed before my eyes, and I needed to understand why that transition took place. I utilized my G.I. Bill and obtained my Master’s Degree. I have been in the social work field for over five years, working in various settings: veteran’s programs, residential treatment facilities for youth, outpatient treatment and a substance abuse treatment facility. I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Trauma-Informed Care.
My belief is that real change can occur in one’s life when they work with a therapist who is genuine and unbiased; someone who has a desire to see others moving forward and living their lives to the fullest. It would be a true honor to be that individual for you or your loved one.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Leah Schumacher. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
I want to say that Leah has been amazing!!!! I would give her 10 stars if I could!! She has certainly not only helped me with myself but also my relationship. It is stronger than ever and I honestly can't thank her enough for all that she has done for us!! I highly recommend her!!!
Ms. Leah is a great therapist and she is so relatable and down to earth. I wish her nothing but the best in her profession.
We have tried working with other counselors in the past, but never had great results and we were repeating a lot of the same mistakes. Working with Leah has given me confidence in repairing my relationship when both of us were losing hope. Leah is a blessing in our relationship and I can’t recommend her enough.
Leah is awesome!
