Getting to know La Wanda Marrero
Hi there, I'm La!
Hello, I am La Wanda Marrero, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist LMFT139411. I have been in practice for over 10 years. My approach is strength-based, to meet you, the client, right where you are. My area of focus is stress reduction and client goal orientation.
My approach
I have found that video, writing, and journaling are key successes to healing and moving forward. Also, play, art, mindfulness, talk, and client-interest activities offer relaxation and a therapeutic accepting environment.
My focus
I work with clients who have made a decision to support themselves in making realistic changes and lifestyle improvements that decrease stress, depression, and anxiety with a trauma-informed, and natural heart approach.
My communication style
I create a safe, trusting, and supportive telehealth experience. I am transparent and encourage honesty and self-acceptance in client decision-making and goals. I challenge a client's goals of therapy to line up with the client's actions.
My journey to mental healthcare
I created a therapeutic writing class called Start Steppin after publishing my first book Alice N Crackland in 2008. I realized writing was an essential tool in acknowledging, accepting, and permitting myself to overcome the challenges that I faced as a child. I believe wholeheartedly others could also benefit from learning to express themselves through the art of writing, pretense, and therapy.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
