I also studied the Integration of Psychology and Theology, earning a Diploma in

I work with my clients to help them better understand themselves and to see new ways of looking at issues. My specializations include: family dynamics; life transitions; spiritual issues; anxiety; depression, grief, and loss; trauma; young adults; parenting; caring for elder parents; chronic illness; and divorce recovery. I consider it an honor to work with people through the rough patches of life.

Counselor, MA, APC, NCC

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral, Integrative Therapy and
Christian counseling
.
I AM NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS - Therapy is most valuable when a person feels seen, heard, and understood. I know the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment for that to happen with my clients. I view the success of the counseling encounter as the result of a joint commitment to a collaborative relationship between myself and the client while they are on their journey to growth, healing, and positive change. It is my mission to help bring about that positive change for those I have the privilege to work with.

Hi my name is Dr. Louvenia Lawson. Do you feel like you don't know where to start? Do you feel like you're not sure if you need therapy? Do you feel totally stuck? Needing therapy doesn't mean you're “crazy”. You're stronger than you think. Things can get better. But your therapist can't “fix” you. No topic is off limits. Therapists are trying too. No, your therapist is really not judging you.

I specialize in working with women who are seeking help with managing emotions, the past, and difficult relationships. I work with those of any faith, but for those seeking distinctively

I am trained in Community Counseling and
Christian Counseling
, so my clients receive clinically sound and culturally responsive services.
Now accepting GA and NC clients. Individually, interpersonally and globally, we are living in the most challenging of times. The stress is high. The anxiety is overwhelming. The advice is inconsistent. You may be grieving an unbearable loss. Your most valued relationships might feel strained. You need a soft place to land...a place to talk...a place to process life...a place to sort through your emotions and thoughts and choices...and someone who understands how important your Christian faith is to you. We all need a little extra help and support now and then. And there's no shame in that! Sometimes you just need to clear your head.

I have an integrated approach to therapy where I pair my research based therapeutic approach through the lenses of
Christian Counseling
.
Do you ever wake up and feel overwhelmed by the emotions that flood your mind constantly? Do you feel like you don’t know how to make sense of these emotions as you go about your day trying to dodge them and stay focused? Or maybe you have anxiety and thoughts that are all consuming so you can’t concentrate. We all experience some form of anxiety and depression, but not all of us know how to handle these emotions on our own effectively. I can help you sort through these overwhelming emotions and teach you to process them in a healthy manner.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
