Getting to know Lashonda Lafayette

Hi there, I'm Lashonda! I am Lashonda Lafayette, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Counseling from Southern Arkansas University. Throughout my career, I have served children, young adults, and the elderly. I hold the conviction that everyone possesses the capacity to overcome trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and various challenges. My approach My areas of expertise include Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Behavioral Management Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, among others. I aim to accompany you on your journey, providing the time, support, and opportunities necessary to enhance your abilities and positively change your life’s direction. My focus I am prepared to assist individuals from all backgrounds in overcoming challenges related to trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. My communication style I strive to foster a stress-free and non-judgmental environment for my clients. My journey to mental healthcare The journey to become a Licensed Professional Counselor started for me 16 years ago. As I observed my children and those around me grappling with challenges, I realized that mere advice was insufficient. This spurred my desire to acquire skills and adopt a new mindset that would enable me—and allow me to help others—overcome self-imposed barriers and those set by others, with the goal of attaining mental and emotional resilience and autonomy. My goals for you When setting goals, you, the client, identify what you aim to achieve. As the therapist, I may offer suggestions, but ultimately, the focus of the session will be determined by your needs and desires. My first session with you In the initial counseling sessions, I will dedicate time to understanding you. Likewise, the initial session offers a chance for you to become acquainted with me. My primary objective is to establish a rapport with you, which is paramount.
