LPC, 6 years of experience
Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters from Amberton University and I have been a counselor for six years. I help young adults struggling with career stress and burnout become the best versions of themselves. In addition, I’m here to support you through life’s most challenging transitions. Whether you're navigating a career change, personal growth, or relationship challenges, I offer a safe and supportive space to explore your journey
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, a psychosocial assessment, then get into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored treatment plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with a diverse population in the field of education and counseling, I actively listen to identify the root cause of the issues you may be facing and create an individualized treatment plan to measure progress.
I love working with adolescents and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, burnout in their careers, or struggling to navigate life transitions. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel constrained, overwhelmed and anxious about their careers and transitions.

Been doing therapy with LaDetra for over a month. She has been amazing. I sometimes feel like I’m speaking to an old friend who is helping me find ways to deal with the things going on in my life. We share laughs and talk about anything. She really is a beautiful soul. I definitely made the right choice.

LaDetra and I had our first session today and I already told her she would be hearing from me again. Her soft spoken insight really helped me think about the topic of our discussion even deeper. She advised that I complete a therapy assignment to hone in on my feelings even more and I’m confident it will help a lot. Looking forward to our next session!

LaDetra Woodson offers therapy covered by UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid in Texas.
The therapist encourages the patient to share their thoughts about the problems, including their self-talk, interpretations, and beliefs. I utilize cognitive restructuring, journaling, and guided discovery.
Use exercises to help clients become aware of their emotions and bodily sensations without being controlled by them. I also provide psychoeducation.
I create a safe space for clients to process their thoughts and feelings while gaining a sense of self-confidence.
