About Leah

My name is Leah Tanui. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience as a registered nurse across skilled, psychiatric, and acute care settings, including seven years as a Director of Nursing. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing- Clinical Nurse Specialist from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 2003 and completed a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certificate at the University of Delaware in 2022. For over three years, I have provided comprehensive mental health services to clients in Delaware and Pennsylvania through both in-office and telehealth visits.

I work with children and adults across the lifespan, treating behavioral disorders like ADHD & autism, mood disorders like depression & bipolar, and psychotic disorders like schizophrenia, among others. I also support clients in treatment facilities for dual diagnosis. I use an integrated,patient-centered approach to support wellness and long-term stability.

I am deeply passionate about my work and find fulfillment in helping clients improve their mental health and quality of life. I bring empathy, dedication, and compassion to every interaction. Clients will find in me a good listener who is patient and collaborative- someone who partners with them on their journey toward healing and well-being.

"Coming from a background where mental illness is less understood and thus looked down upon, I have become an educational source to my community, as a result, those afflicted are seeking treatment. I couldn't be happier."
