Meaning in life can be hard to find when we are struggling to just get through each day, and therapy can help. If you feel empty, overwhelmed or lost, please reach out because you don't have to go through it without support. While I work with many issues, I specialize in mood disorders, cluster B personality disorders, adult 'giftedness' /GT issues, low belongingness, polyamory and relationship problems of all types. If you have felt othered or marginalized before, I want to assure you I offer affirming care and operate from an inclusive point of view. Currently accepting new clients for virtual therapy only.

My focus as a therapist is to help you achieve a sense of well being and personal control in spite of life's many ups and downs. From the first session, we will combine exploratory tools (insight driven/self-focused) & cognitive tools (feeling/thought/action based tools) to our conversations, so that you can leave sessions feeling focused.
It can be hard to reach out when you are struggling, so I aim to make this process as easy as possible. To get started, just visit www.laveldanaylor.org and message me, it is that simple. Alternately, you may call or email me (preferred, faster reply) here on Psychology Today. I will return contact usually within 24 hours. Take that first step now.
