About LaWanda
LaWanda Myers is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of professional experience. She is licensed in Alabama, Pennsylvania, and Texas and works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, and depression. She also addresses social anxiety and phobia and related struggles that affect daily life.
LaWanda frames the work around the client's own knowledge of their life. She listens for strengths and coping skills already in use and builds on those practical resources. Sessions are straightforward and focused on problem-solving and learning skills to manage symptoms and relationships.
She helps people name patterns that cause pain, like avoidance or self-criticism, and practices alternative ways of responding. That might include learning steps to reduce anxiety in social situations, processing grief in concrete ways, or making small behavior changes that improve mood. Conversations include clear goals and simple homework when helpful.
Her experience includes supporting people through losses, trauma, mood fluctuations, and relationship stress. She encourages slow, steady progress and checks in about what is working. Before booking, clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details.
LaWanda conducts sessions in English and is not accepting international clients. Her approach centers on practical skills, honest conversation, and collaborative planning to address life stressors and emotional struggles.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
LaWanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and behavioral change. One common approach is teaching step-by-step coping strategies for anxiety and phobia; these strategies break down fear into manageable actions and help people practice responding differently in social situations. Another useful approach involves processing traumatic events through structured conversation and pacing, which helps reduce the intensity of upsetting memories and supports better day-to-day functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and comfort level. That process includes setting simple goals, trying methods in sessions, and adjusting the plan based on what helps most.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Speak with the therapist about how sessions will be scheduled and delivered to make sure they fit into your routine.
