More about LaSonda

  • 23 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker and licensed clinical addiction counselor with over 20 years of clinical experience. I hold two licenses in the State of Indiana my LCSW and my LCAC. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, addiction, PTSD, interpersonal relationship issues, end of life issues, life change issues, etc. I have worked with many individuals experiencing the effects of trauma. I have worked specifically with veterans as well as civilians with age range children through the elderly population.

My approach it to partner with my clients as they address their specific need(s). My style is laid back, compassionate, respectful, and honest while working in partnership. I use a combination of CBT, DBT, MI, ACT, Solution Focused, etc.

It takes courage to seek help and I would love to walk beside you. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

LaSonda is a wonderful and caring person that creates a safe space in which I feel comfortable talking about anything! She is insightful and positive! I truly look forward to our sessions every week.

Reviewed April 2023

I was worried about starting therapy at first. I figured I may be too far gone and no one would be willing to take the time to listen and try to understand how I feel. But fortunately I was paired with a great therapist who refuses to judge and makes me feel as if I can talk about anything anytime. She listens and has been and is still helping me understand what’s going on with me constantly reminding me I’m not alone and that there is hope. With more areas of expertise than i have hairs on my head I have no doubt that she would be willing to help me with any issues I presented her with. She has done me a great justice and I would have no problem recommending her to anyone who is facing the same or similar issues as myself.
