Great to meet you!

Hello, My name is Lasonna R. Claxton, previously Rivers. New name, same compassion and knowledge. I would like to take this time to commend you on this very important step. I have been working in the field of Mental Health for 15 years. I have been licensed in the State of Georgia for 7 years. I believe in the importance of learning to love your mind and develop healthy coping skills to reduce symptoms of mental illness.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is unique in that I use the foundation of my Bachelor's degree in Social work to meet client's where they are. I support all evidence based modalities such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy to assist individuals with changing faulty thinking and increasing positive self talk.

What you can expect from me

I create a safe and non judgmental therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe and heard.
