I'm a licensed mental health counselor with over 30 years of experience helping others help themselves. My time as a mental health counselor has provided me the opportunity to work with individuals from a diverse variety of backgrounds. My methods are client focused and adaptable, insuring you get the counseling that is best suited for you.

Throughout my 20+ years of providing therapy, my focus has increasingly been on supporting clients in realizing their potential. Each of us has a purpose: a gift we can offer to others that is unique to us. Attempting to emulate someone else robs the world of you. Minimizing the influence others have on you is essential to reaching your optimum capacity. Actively listening to others’ feedback while maintaining your reality is paramount to becoming an authentic adult.

I take a holistic approach to counseling, with an emphasis on mind, body and spirit in relationship to self and others. I specialize in trauma informed practices utilizing modalities such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, and family systems therapy.I am a Children's Mental Health Therapist and a Minority Mental Health Therapist with experience working with Native American, Hispanic and African American and LGBTQ populations.

I am considered a Subject Matter Expert on PTSD. The goal of my mental health practice is to assist clients in transforming their lives. My office provides a sanctuary, safety and healing, from which to discover ways to re-connect with your life. We will create new ways of coping with your emotional, spiritual and physical health conditions. We work with a variety of issues: PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance and alcohol abuse. We provide Readjustment Counseling after life-altering events: war zone trauma, deployment stress, divorce, illness, domestic violence, assault, financial stress, etc. Why wait?

Do relationships stress you out? Are you lonely, angry, misunderstood, depressed, worried and afraid? Have you lost your sense of purpose and worry that life is hopeless or out of control? Do you doubt the things that you once held sacred? Are you exhausted trying to juggle all of the obligations in your life? Have your friends, family, or coworkers noticed that your struggles are suffocating your capacity for joy? Are you ready to begin the work of making healthy changes and living an abundant life?

We all need support throughout our lives, and you may be looking for an additional resource to help you process lived experiences, problem-solve, or understand yourself in a deeper way. You may be struggling with anxiety, the challenges of caregiving, work stress and burnout, relationship challenges, or working through grief, loss, or bereavement. You want to engage in healthy coping skills and develop self-care habits to better support the vision you have for your life.

What happened? Do you understand your true self? Have you discovered how to live life on life's terms in a meaningful way? These are the central focuses of my practice. While I'm a psychiatrist with extensive clinical experience, I consider myself - first and foremost - a therapist who simply has more tools at his disposal as a physician. I always seek to provide holistic care. That is, I work to see and treat the whole you, not just the constellation of symptoms you have. As such, my approach shuns the conventional practice of overemphasizing diagnostic labels and medications. Life - with you in it - is more complicated than that.

We are truly living in troubled times, globally and personally. Many of us find ourselves fluctuating between feelings of anxiety and/or depression. At 67 years old, I’ve spent nearly half my life – 35 years – as a Marriage and Family Therapist/Psychotherapist. Adding Hypnotherapy to my practice has been a game changer, and that, along with friends, colleagues, and many clients, I’ve learned ways of managing my thinking and thereby managing my emotions. This is what I do in my private practice and I can help you to do the same.

Welcome! Making the choice to start therapy can be overwhelming. Knowing what to expect can help. Our sessions will take place via secure Telehealth or in person, depending on your needs. I have over 15 years of experience in working with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, chronic illness, grief/loss, motherhood, postpartum depression/anxiety and adults navigating life transitions. I utilize holistic, relational and strengths-based approaches to work with you towards growth and healing. I work with adults and couples. I am LGBTQIA+ and Neurodivergent Affirming therapist.

Maybe you need support in navigating pregnancy or the newborn stage, or maybe you’re dealing with the pain of infertility, pregnancy loss, or childbirth trauma. Certified in Perinatal Mental Health, I guide couples and individuals through the transformative journey of welcoming new life. Specifically, I love supporting queer couples navigating their fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum journey. Beyond the perinatal period, I help clients enhance communication and navigate neurodivergency. I use modalities such as Gottman Theory, Attachment Theory, and solution-oriented therapy to help clients achieve their goals.

I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients, helping each to develop the specific and unique tools necessary to cultivate a more satisfying and fulfilling life. My approach is to first actively listen, gaining a thorough understanding of the history of the situation and symptoms, the presenting challenges, and any other influences such as family history, cultural or racial factors, chronic illness, and economic stressors. We will then work together to identify treatment goals and ways to reach them. I work with a broad spectrum of clients ranging in age from 16 and above, offering individual, couples, and family therapy.

LaDonna specializes in supporting women through life-stage transitions, those who have experienced trauma, couples seeking to develop a meaningful connection in their relationships, those with chronic illness, and helping clients integrate spirituality into the challenges of life. LaDonna enjoys assisting clients in unpacking through collaboration to bring renewed hope, healing, and restoration. This approach then helps clients differentiate between thoughts and feelings, to learn behaviors and skills to overcome life difficulties.

You are on the verge of taking a brave step. Perhaps you have encountered a new challenge, or have realized you need a new way of coping with an old problem. Often this is a moment of crisis, and at the same time, an opportunity to learn and to grow. I am passionate about working with clients who are coping with major life changes. If a medical condition (e.g. brain injury, post-concussion syndrome, stroke, spinal injury, chronic dizziness/pain, chronic illness or critical illness/COVID) has affected you or your loved one, or if your quality of life is impacted by treatable conditions such as PTSD or anxiety, we may be a good fit.
