Hi there, I'm Ladonna!

I specialize in working with adults addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, bereavement, and life transitions. Together, we can build a therapy space rooted in trust where you feel comfortable exploring sensitive topics. I look forward to walking this journey with you.

My focus

I work best with clients ready to engage in therapy. I have specialized experience with military members, veterans and their families, first responders, formerly incarcerated individuals, and first-generation Americans. I also provide care for those navigating postpartum challenges, chronic pain, grief, and LGBTQIA+ concerns.

My approach

My approach is grounded in warmth, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. I use research-backed therapies such as CBT, mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy, integrating techniques from Motivational Interviewing, DBT, ACT, and REBT to personalize sessions.
