Who I Work With

You're in the right place if…

Things shouldn't feel this hard, yet they do. Whether it's your child, your teen, yourself, or your family — I work with people who are exhausted by the same patterns repeating and ready to understand what's actually getting in the way.

Children & Kids

Emotional ups and downs, shutdowns, school stress, or a recent diagnosis. I help children build emotional regulation skills and develop tools that make daily life feel more manageable.

Ages 6–11

Teens & Adolescents

Procrastination, social anxiety, school-related stress, or the weight of feeling like you're always falling behind. I work with teens to understand their patterns with more clarity and less self-criticism.

Ages 12–17

Adults

Self-doubt, burnout, or the cumulative impact of years of undiagnosed or unsupported ADHD. Many adults I work with understand what's happening — but still find the same dynamics repeating at work, in relationships, or within themselves.

18+

Parents & Families

Keeping track of schedules, managing tension at home around follow-through, advocating at school — it's a heavy load. I work with parents to understand what's underneath the struggle and develop tools that actually fit daily life.

What I Offer

Therapy that goes beyond
symptom management.

My goal is to help you understand your patterns with more clarity and compassion — while building practical tools that make life feel more sustainable.

Psychotherapy

For individuals and families who are bright, capable, and trying hard — but still feel overwhelmed by school, work, or daily life. I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, and the emotional ripple effects that often come with them.

ADHD Assessments

Targeted assessments for children, adolescents, and adults who suspect ADHD — including guidance on diagnosis, treatment, and next steps.

Consultation

Not sure where to start? I offer consultation sessions for parents and individuals who want clarity before committing to a full assessment — whether that's understanding your child's challenges, navigating school support, or figuring out the right next step.

Parent Guidance

Parenting a child with ADHD or anxiety is its own challenge. I offer dedicated sessions for parents — to make sense of what's happening, reduce conflict at home, and feel more confident advocating for your child at school and beyond.

Getting Started

Getting started is straightforward.

You don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out. Here's what to expect.

1

Free consultation

A 20-minute call to hear what's bringing you in and talk through whether working together makes sense. No pressure, no commitment.

2

First session

We spend time getting to know your situation — what's been hard, what you've already tried, and what you're hoping for. I'll share my initial thoughts and we'll agree on a direction together.

3

Ongoing work

Sessions are typically weekly to start. We move at a pace that works for you, with regular check-ins on how things are going.

About Dr. Fischel

Thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded in relationship.

I'm Leah Fischel, a Clinical Psychologist. I work with adolescents and adults — and the families around them — seeking greater clarity and flexibility in how they relate to themselves and others.

My work is grounded in a collaborative therapeutic relationship that feels steady, thoughtful, and supportive. Together, we explore how earlier experiences shape present-day emotions and relationships, allowing new ways of relating to emerge over time.

What Clients Are Saying

In their own words.

★★★★★

"Leah is warm and empathetic, but she also challenges you for the sake of your best interest. I feel like I've made more progress with her in a few months than I did in years with some of my previous therapists. Our work has helped me reframe so much of my life and I am so infinitely grateful."

— Adult client, recently diagnosed with ADHD
★★★★★

"Dr. Fischel not only provided a clear understanding of my daughter's challenges but also recommended effective treatment strategies tailored to her needs. Her continued support has made a significant difference in my daughter's life, helping her build confidence and develop essential skills."

— Parent of a child with ADHD and dyslexia
★★★★★

"My sessions with Leah feel like speaking to the closest friend and confidant — one who can anticipate the guidance I need, even when it's difficult to articulate and ask. I continue to look forward to our conversations, and the solace and relief she provides on rough days."

— Adult client

Common Questions

Quick answers.

Everything you need to know before reaching out.

Do you accept insurance?

I am an out-of-network provider. I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Many clients are able to recover a significant portion of fees this way. Please contact me to discuss.

Do you offer telehealth?

Yes. I am licensed in both Connecticut and New York, and I participate in PsyPact — an interstate compact that allows licensed psychologists to provide telepsychology services across participating states. This means I can see clients via telehealth in many states beyond CT and NY. In-person sessions are available at my offices in Stamford and Greenwich, CT, convenient for clients throughout Fairfield and Westchester Counties.

What ages do you work with?

I work with clients of all ages — children (from around age 6), teens, and adults. I also offer parent guidance and family support sessions.

How do I know if my child needs an evaluation vs. therapy?

A free consultation is the best place to start. I'll ask a few questions about what you're noticing and recommend the right starting point — whether that's an evaluation, therapy, or both.

I look forward to learning about your situation.

A free consultation is a chance to talk through what's been getting in the way and discuss options for a more hopeful tomorrow.
