Getting to know Lanelle Laws
Hello and welcome! I am Lanelle P. Laws, LMFT, with over 15 years of experience in practice. I hold a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelor's degree from the University of Phoenix. I have done extensive work with formerly incarcerated individuals, those suffering from trauma, the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with anxiety, couples, and those struggling with depression. I also love helping build everyone's self-esteem.
I offer an environment that is non-judgmental, comfortable, and encouraging, grounded in a BIPOC approach. I'm a unique therapist because my lived experience gives me a relatability that others do not have. I have dedicated my life to breaking generational traumas that have plagued many underserved communities, and I aim to bring voices to marginalized populations that have been misrepresented. I always say, ?I'm not your average therapist!? I don't say this because I'm better?I say this because my approach has been elevated to attract individuals who have fallen through the cracks due to unhealthy relationships with therapy.
I know what it's like to need help and not be able to find it? let me ?Change Ur Narrative.?
What should a new client know about working with you?
During your intake session, I'll conduct your intake paperwork for a wholistic view of your strengths and needs, followed by a collaborative treatment planning stage. In this stage we will develop and clarify treatment goals, and mechanisms for achieving these goals. Along with how we will measure the treatment effectiveness. My treatment planning phases utilize solution focused and client centered approach’s to achieve the goals. I defer to the most effective treatment orientation depending on the patient’s presenting concerns. This means that sometimes I will use an eclectic approach involving two or more interventions.

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.

She’s good. She missed a session I had to reschedule a session so it’s taking a minute to get to know each other. But overall good.
