Greetings to you and thanks for stopping by. My name is LaShanda and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Georgia with over 10 years of experience. My background includes experience working with adults and children, however I only see adults in private practice at this time. I have worked with people on a large array of challenges/situations to include depression, anxiety, severe persistent mental illness and also integrated care (to name a few). My specialties include: depression, stress, life adjustment/changes, women's issues, infertility, self care and coping skills. I know sometimes it may feel like life has roads with many twists, turns, delays and detours. I also know that sometimes we simply may be in new territory, or in pursuit of new dreams and goals. I want you to know that wherever you may find yourself in this journey of life that I am here to offer you support. I am well versed in a number of different therapeutic approaches/treatment modalities, however I believe that there no one size that will fit all. So, we can work together to come up with the right support for your needs. Please note: If you do not see a day or time that will suit your needs, please do not hesitate to reach out to me as I may be able to accommodate. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session we typically complete matters related to assessment/and or screenings. We also develop goals that we plan to address during the time we will be working together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am kind and warm. I try to make therapy as painless as possible. I also understand that it takes courage and a willingness to participate in therapy/counseling from the start. I am able to adjust the pace of things we address in a person centered manner, to where we work at a pace that is comfortable for you.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Adults, 18 and older, perhaps struggling with anxiety, depression, or issues related to stress, adjustments and/or transitions.
