Everyone deserves to have someone in their corner, especially when life feels overwhelming or things aren't going as planned. Whether you're navigating personal challenges, family concerns, life transitions, or simply trying to understand yourself better, finding the right support matters.

Hi, I'm Lanisha! I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor. I've had the opportunity to support people of all ages. My experience includes helping children find their way, adults navigate life's many changes, and families work through challenges together. My experience in both clinical and educational settings has helped me appreciate the different experiences and perspectives people bring to therapy.

I bring warmth, curiosity, and genuine conversation into sessions. I enjoy asking thoughtful questions, exploring different perspectives, and working collaboratively with clients. I believe there's more to every person than their diagnosis or circumstances, and that healing and growth look different for everyone. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel comfortable being yourself and exploring what matters most to you.

I believe therapy should be collaborative, engaging, and tailored to your individual needs. My experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in clinical, educational, and community settings has helped me understand how emotional, behavioral, relationship, and life challenges can affect people differently.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to explore personal values and develop ways to respond to difficult emotions. Through Solution Focused Brief Therapy, I help clients identify strengths, recognize what's working, and explore practical steps toward their goals. When working with children, I use play therapy to encourage emotional expression, communication, and problem solving through games and creative activities.

My approach is warm, curious, and interactive. I ask thoughtful questions, encourage different perspectives, and work collaboratively with you while respecting your ability to make your own decisions.

Taking that first step toward therapy isn't always easy, and I want you to feel welcomed and comfortable from the moment we meet. Our first session will be a one on one conversation where we'll complete an initial assessment while getting to know each other. I'll ask questions about your background, what brought you to therapy, and what you're hoping to gain from our time together. You'll also have an opportunity to ask questions, share any concerns, and learn more about what therapy with me looks like. There's no pressure to have everything figured out or share more than you're comfortable with. I believe building trust takes time, and your comfort matters. We'll work together to begin identifying goals that are meaningful to you. Most importantly, I want you to know that this is your space, your journey, and your voice matters.
