Introduction

Hi and welcome! I’m Larneka Lavalais, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor committed to helping individuals heal from trauma, manage stress and anxiety, and build a more empowered life. I became a therapist out of a deep desire to support people who often feel overlooked or unheard, especially those navigating systemic challenges, trauma, and identity-based stress. I specialize in trauma-informed care and use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and reconnect with their inner resilience. My work centers communities of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, trauma survivors, and those living with chronic stress or life transitions. In our work together, you’ll find a safe, supportive space to process your experiences and move toward lasting change. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for growth, I’m here to walk with you on your journey to healing.
