Lazane Walls

Hi, I’m Lazane Walls, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 26 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. As a U.S. Air Force veteran and former military mental health provider, I understand the unique challenges that can come with military service, major life changes, and finding your footing during difficult seasons. I also support clients navigating family stress, identity, and the emotional impact of life circumstances that can feel overwhelming.

You don’t have to work through everything alone. I provide a warm, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop practical coping tools, and work toward feeling more grounded, confident, and in control of your life. Wherever you’re starting from, we’ll focus on what matters most to you and take steps toward a healthier, more balanced future.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and empowering. I believe therapy should be a place where you can speak openly without judgment while learning practical ways to manage challenges in your everyday life. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), I help clients recognize unhelpful thought patterns, better understand their emotions, and develop healthier ways to respond to stress.

I tailor our work to your individual needs, experiences, and goals. Whether you’re working through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or relationship difficulties, we’ll focus on building resilience, strengthening coping skills, and creating changes that feel realistic and lasting. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths and feel more equipped to navigate life with greater clarity and confidence.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you’re unsure where to begin. Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other, talk about what has brought you to therapy, and explore what you hope will change. You can share at your own pace, ask questions, and discuss the challenges that have been weighing on you.

Together, we’ll begin identifying your goals and determining what kind of support will be most helpful. My goal is to create a comfortable, respectful environment where you feel heard and supported, while beginning to develop practical steps toward improved well-being. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet taking the first step is enough.
