I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 13+ years of counseling and supervisory experience who enjoys working with adolescents, adults, couples and families. In my therapy practice, I use one-on-one, couples and family sessions. The clients I work with can expect sessions to focus on the negative thoughts and behaviors that are holding them back, the life events that created them, and ways to improve satisfaction in their lives and relationships.

I believe that in order for us to be our best selves, we need connection with one another. I strive to help individuals find value and connection with others through healthy relationships. Asking for help in personal and painful situations is a vulnerable and humbling experience. Through the use of a variety of approaches, I seek to help individuals feel accepted, hopeful and not alone in their situation.

Now taking clients for individual therapy only, daytime hours only please! I’d love to help you find a new and better place to live in and live from. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I work well with couples, families, and teens. Everyone who comes to therapy is unique so I listen well to get to know each person and family situation well. My systems training will help you make better sense of how to communicate to those you love and care for. With a couple’s relationship, I’m amazed at how rich EFT, an attachment based approach, is in helping people open up to healing and trust inside their relationship.

Hi! My name is Tonya Lane, LPC at Life and Love Counseling, LLC. I work with children, adolescents, adults, & families, with a specific emphasis on helping preschool-aged & preadolescent children. My role often extends to the children's families & their circumstances that impact their lives; education, community, & legal matters. I will often communicate with outside agencies & schools to facilitate collaboration.

I specialize in working with adolescents, families, and couples. My training is largely systems focused and I prefer to focus on strengthening relationships as a tool to healing. I specialize in post-traumatic stress disorder, attachment difficulties, relationship issues, and grief/bereavement.

What sets the identity of my sessions is their structure and strategy. While I believe in having client centered treatment, I've often felt as though the therapist/client relationship requires strategy and tangible advancement that can be noted by the client. What this means is that using psycho education to identify thought or behavior patterns is often used as well as guided conversations to further explore the nature of distressed mental health symptoms. My previous experience includes: Adult counseling with a focus on Anxiety based disorders, Family counseling, Reunification counseling, Drug/Alcohol counseling

I enjoy seeing diverse populations and have worked extensively with women, young adults, teenagers, and survivors of trauma and domestic violence.
