Great to meet you!

I’m LeSonya, and I believe in walking with you through life’s ups and downs—where faith, heart, and practical support meet. I started In His Image Christian Counseling Services because I’ve seen how powerful it can be when emotional healing lines up with spiritual truth. My hope is to create a space where you’re seen, accepted, and encouraged to grow.

My approach to therapy

We’ll work together—side by side—as you navigate challenges from grief, motherhood, or relational tension to trauma and transitions. While I bring a Christian perspective into our work (I’m a deeply committed Christian and I lean on faith in our conversations), what matters most is your story, your pace, and your goals. Expect honesty, warmth, and a focus on what matters most to you. Many clients say they feel empowered, understood, and hopeful in ways they didn’t expect going into therapy.

Who I love to serve

  • Those navigating changes from parenthood, marriage, loss, identity, or life transitions
  • Individuals wrestling with grief, trauma, or relational wounds
  • Couples seeking a stronger connection and healthier patterns

Clients often describe me as encouraging, grounded, and hope-filled. I believe no one’s journey has to be walked alone—and I’d be honored to walk it alongside you.
