My name is LaShana Vance, and I am a LPC who also has a medical background also. As a therapist I work from the framework that we must treat the mind and body together. I try to understand my clients from a comprehensive lens to help them in the most effective way possible. My style tends to be more direct and to the point, but I am also compassionate and caring at the same time. I find this approach is sometimes necessary and often is what helps my clients get to the heart of their issues or problem areas.

You’re the one people go to for support because you seem like you have it all together. Underneath, however, is a different story. You’re barely hanging on. Everyday stressors are overwhelming you. Feeling depressed, hopeless, and anxious are your new norms. You may feel uncomfortable in your own skin and use substances or restrictions as a way to cope. You may feel fearful and stuck because of a traumatic experience. Humans are naturally resilient, but in an attempt to adapt we can fall into unhealthy cycles that keep us from realizing our potential.

Are anxiety, OCD, or depression symptoms limiting your life? Do you or a loved one have daily struggles with unwanted thoughts & worries, social anxiety, perfectionism or panic attacks? Over time, anxious thoughts, emotions, and physical symptoms build & everyday stress can be debilitating. Symptoms are difficult to control, making going to school, performing at work and keeping up with relationships & responsibilities feel impossible. Seeking mental health treatment can be overwhelming and it's normal to feel worried or unsure. It takes tremendous strength to acknowledge that anxiety, fear & emotions are a barrier to enjoying life.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
