Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m LaShana a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience helping adults navigate life’s challenges with clarity and confidence. I specialize in working with adults who are managing anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

My approach to therapy

I understand how overwhelming it can feel to balance responsibilities while trying to take care of yourself. Therapy with me is a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

My approach is collaborative and practical. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help you gain insight, develop healthier coping strategies, and build emotional resilience. I focus on teaching tools you can apply in your daily life so that progress continues beyond our sessions.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is simply a conversation. We’ll explore what’s been weighing on you, what you’re hoping will change, and what support looks like for you. You don’t need to have everything figured out, just come as you are. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, understood, and hopeful.

Let's work together and change how you show up in your world!
