LaQuanda Wiggins

"Healing isn't about forgetting what happened to you. It's about no longer being ruled by it." My name is LaQuanda Wiggins, and that belief sits at the center of my work, especially with clients carrying the weight of trauma and PTSD. Over several years in nonprofits, correctional and detention settings, and private practice, I've worked alongside people who've survived some of life's hardest moments, and I've seen firsthand how much relief comes from finally being understood rather than judged. Alongside trauma and PTSD, I support clients through depression, anxiety, grief, panic disorders, family and relationship strain, chronic health conditions, and the stress of navigating cultural and ethnic identity. Whatever brought you here, I bring a warm, open-minded, and creative approach to help you move forward.

I start by truly listening, because you deserve to be heard before anything else. From there, I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, including trauma-focused CBT for clients working through PTSD, alongside narrative therapy and psychodynamic approaches, so we can both process what happened and rewrite the story you tell yourself about it. I tailor the mix to you: some sessions are more structured and skills-based, others are about giving you room to talk and be understood on your own terms.

From our first session, you can expect a warm, safe, and genuinely positive environment, one where you set the pace. We'll work together to help you feel less controlled by what you've been through and more grounded in who you are now. If you're ready to start that work, I'd love to hear your story.
