I am also an award-winning poet and prose writer, with my debut poetry collection, Oneironaut, available from Foyles, Waterstones and Amazon.

I am a member of the Guild of Health Writers and Lapidus UK.

“Leah has been writing beautiful pieces on wellness and travel for Female First over the last five years, which have helped to make these sections such a success. She is now our resident dreams expert and writes a regular column for the site. Leah is thoughtful and kind in her email exchanges and always produces an excellent standard of writing. She is a lovely person to work with and superb at her craft.” – Lucy Walton Lange

I’ve written a range of travel reviews, usually focused around the theme of staycations, wellness retreats or slow travel.

I often write about alternative health, psychotherapy, gestalt, sleep, dreams, relationships, mental health, and neurodivergence. I’ve racked up over 30 features for Breathe magazine over the last 6 years.
