Join us in welcoming Leigh Kirkland to the team! She is coming to us from GA with a wealth of experience. Excited to have her expertise on the team!
Leigh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Leigh works with individuals/couples/families to address ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and personality disorders as well as grief, life changes, and stress through the use of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness and play therapy techniques with a client/solution focused approach.
As a military daughter, sister, and granddaughter, I have experienced firsthand the unique challenges that come with military life. My family was stationed at Fort Stewart before we settled in Statesboro. I went on to complete my undergraduate degree in Child Psychology at Kaplan University and earned my Master's in Counseling from Wake Forest University. Since 2016, I have dedicated my career to working with children, adolescents, families, and adults. I achieved my LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in 2021.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I love working with clients that struggle with finding solutions or are seeking coping skills to manage parts of their lives that are difficult. I value the importance of family and community, and I bring these values into my practice. I believe in the power of connection and the strength that comes from supportive relationships.
Leigh provides counseling services for patients with Aetna, Tricare, and offers self-pay options. Leigh is a certified non-network provider with Tricare. She is working on applications with various insurance companies to affiliate with Seagrass (BCBS, UHC, SC Medicaid) and in the meantime is able to provide a superbill to any patient who would like to access her services using out-of-network benefits. She is accepting new child (age 4+), adult, couple and family patient at this time.
