Meet LaTeasha

Congratulations on taking the step to invest in your mental health. Together, we will tend to the wounds that have weighed heavy on you, gently unraveling things that no longer serve you. Through intentional support, you will reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been forgotten, silenced, or sacrificed. As your therapist my goal is to guide you and walk with you through your journey of change. I will teach you the psychology of what you are experiencing and assist you with gaining and applying effective tools to achieve the goals you set forth.

Together, we will tend to the wounds that have weighed heavy on you, gently unraveling things that no longer serve you.
