Hello! I’m Laverne Santangelo, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan, Certified Wholistic Life Coach, and Registered Yoga Teacher. As a retired U.S. Army veteran, I’ve dedicated my life to service—first to my country, and now to helping others heal from the therapy chair and the yoga mat.
I specialize in supporting women navigating grief, loss, depression, anxiety, and major life transitions—whether that’s the pain of losing a loved one, the quiet ache of an empty nest, the uncertainty of retirement, or the hidden grief that follows abortion or divorce. I understand that grief isn’t only about death—it’s also about the endi
I help women navigating grief, loss, anxiety, depression, and life transitions find healing through a mind-body-spirit approach. As a veteran, therapist, and yoga teacher, I blend talk therapy with mindfulness, breathwork, and movement to restore balance, peace, and emotional wellness.
I believe in working with the mind, body and spirit. I highly encourage that you incorporate some type of movement (dance, yoga, walking etc.)or mindfulness activity(journaling, meditation, breath work, prayer) while you see me for therapy. I will meet where you are at in your journey to healing and finding peace.
