I am a LPC and a Certified Anger Management Specialist II. I have a Master’s Degree in Psychology, a 2nd Masters Degree in Clinical Counseling and Sex therapy, and am an EMDR trained therapist. I have extensive training in Anger management, mood disorders (anxiety/depression), family systems, ABA, , infertility, and many more. I’m always working to keep myself well-educated and eclectic. I love being a helper. I love to challenge perspectives, interrupting negative patterns, and aiding in the transformation of minds. My passion is to help aid my clients in identifying who they are, where they are, and where they are wanting to get too. I work to help resolve conflict individually, in families, and/or in relationships. Each client’s story and the journey are specific to them so my goal is to shape treatment to the specific needs of each person. We will work through the difficult moments, learn skills to aid in independence, and become comfortable enough to reach out for support when something is not working. Breaking patterns and creating new ones based off the person/family/couple you strive to be is the goal of each session.

I like to view psychotherapy and the therapeutic relationship as having a personal trainer for your emotional well being and personal life. It can teach relational skills and promote healing. It requires a commitment to yourself and serves as an investment. The return on that investment can be achieving goals, growth, and emotional satisfaction. There are many reasons someone may seek out a therapist, regardless of those reasons my goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where we can build a trusting therapeutic relationship that allows for healing and growth. I am a Licensed Psychotherapist with over 30 years of clinical experience specializing in grief and loss, trauma, PTSD, addiction, mood disorders, suicidal ideation and crisis intervention.

I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client or family centered, and solution focus. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I look forward to working with you! SIDE NOTE FOR FIRST TIME CLIENT'S I want transparency about late cancelation and no show charges. I understand things happen so the best way to communicate that is to reach out to me. In order to avoid the late cancelation fee please cancel within 24 hours and 1 min of the appointment time. Grow provides a cancelation link or you can reach out to me and I can help you reschedule the appointment if available. Also if a client does not log on within 15 minutes of the start time, it's considered a no show and the no show fee is charged.

Welcome and thank you for considering Free The Mind as your next therapeutic support system. Seeking therapy can feel a little embarrassing, or maybe even frustrating, but you're making the right choice. Have you been struggling with grief or loss? Do you find it hard to stay happy this time of year? Did you survive a traumatic event and now feel like a completely different person? Well there's a group for that! I utilize group therapy and psycho-education to normalize the therapeutic experience when individual counseling can feel isolating. Group offers the client relatability and community. Witnessing the healing and growth of others can help you experience healing and growth of your own. If this is your first time seeking therapy, or you aren't quite comfortable with the group experience, individual therapy is available. Have you noticed increased anxious feelings? Let's practice grounding and systematic desensitization. Are you tired of feeling a certain way and just can't seem to get over things? Maybe we can try brainspotting. Have you survived a sexual assault or violation, and not sure how to move forward? Lets try EMDR. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I can also provide you with information for additional support services that can enhance your process. I'm here to help. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. Let's work together!

I love partnering with people on their journey to greatness. I use a strengths-based approach to help my clients see the choices that are always at their disposal to unlearn past harmful messaging or combat unrelenting present symptoms. As a Black woman, I always integrate the importance of diversity. Playing small to blend in doesn't serve anyone. Whether we're different based on external or internal attributes, we all need to embrace our beautiful and different qualities so that we can live an authentic life. My work also focuses on boundaries, challenging thoughts, and improving communication skills. I integrate role plays, affirmations, accountability, and direct introspection exercises to aid clients in quieting the noise of societal norms to embrace their true joy. All sessions are client-focused, I don't come with my own agenda. I'm excited to help you live life with confidence on your own terms. I look forward to working with you.

I practice by a simple model: words are only soothing to the ear but my acts of tenderness and kindness act as a beacon to guide you through your turbulent times. This simple phrase means I can offer words of encouragement but it is my actions that make a difference. Please recognize that life can one better or bitter. We can work to build to make life better.

Hi, I’m LaNae! Think of me as the therapist who brings equal parts humor, warmth, and honesty into the room. I believe therapy doesn’t have to feel stiff or scary—it can be a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and even laugh a little along the way. I’m not a one size fits all therapist. However, if I am a match we will take great strides and efforts to reach your goals.
