More about Lashonta

Hey, I'm LaShonta! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes you shouldn't have to carry everything on your own. Life has a way of bringing changes, challenges, and unexpected seasons that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from ourselves. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, motherhood, or simply trying to figure out your next chapter, I'm here to help.

I enjoy working with individuals and couples experiencing life transitions, relationship stress, communication challenges, difficulty setting boundaries, and changes in identity and self-esteem. I also have a special interest in supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, and the emotional adjustments that come with motherhood, including postpartum depression and anxiety.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I want therapy to be a space where you can show up as you are, have honest conversations, laugh when you need to, unpack the hard stuff, and feel supported without judgment. Whether you're working through a difficult season or rediscovering yourself along the way, you deserve a space where you don't have to be strong all the time. We'll figure out the next steps together.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
