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.
LaDonna utilizes a variety of theoretical approaches to therapy, in effort to meet her clients’ specific needs. The theoretical approaches that she uses include, but are not limited to her usage of experiential modes to therapy, mindfulness/coping skills, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally-focused couples therapy, and narrative therapy.
We all face difficulties in this world and deserve an outlet to process the difficulties that we face in one form or another. It is a great honor to journey with clients, as we collaborate together to meet their desired goals of establishing hope, healing, and restoration. If after reading this, you feel comfortable with my approach feel free to contact me.
