LaWanda Myers, LICSW, LCSW

LaWanda Myers is a licensed social worker who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, and depression. She brings seven years of clinical experience across multiple states and centers her work on clients' strengths. She emphasizes that people are the experts in their own stories and that therapy is a partnership. LaWanda offers encouragement to those taking the first step toward support.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on identifying what feels most urgent and building manageable skills for day-to-day life. She talks with clients about coping strategies for mood swings, managing anxiety, and working through the impact of trauma and loss. Conversations also cover issues like abandonment, body image, guilt, isolation, and communication problems.

LaWanda has worked with people facing challenges related to caregiving stress, relationship separation, and concerns tied to military service. She pays attention to how mood and personality concerns affect daily functioning and relationships. Clinical work can include creating small, achievable goals and practicing new ways to handle difficult emotions.

Clients can expect a collaborative tone in sessions. LaWanda listens for strengths and helps people apply those strengths to real situations. She encourages gradual progress rather than quick fixes and supports clients as they try new strategies.

Licensed as a LICSW and LCSW, she practices in Texas and conducts therapy in English. She recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and aims to make the process clear and approachable for anyone seeking support.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

LaWanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and real-world changes. One common approach helps people learn coping tools for anxiety and mood regulation, such as breathing strategies, pacing activities, and tracking mood patterns to spot triggers. Another approach concentrates on processing trauma and loss by creating a safe sequence of conversations and small exposures to difficult memories so symptoms feel less overwhelming over time.

Finding the right method is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and comfort level. That choice comes from talking about symptoms, daily routines, and what the person hopes to change, so plans are adjusted as progress is made.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives - for example by reducing travel time, allowing a quicker check-in during a lunch break, or letting someone choose a format that feels less demanding on bandwidth or camera use. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to practice skills between meetings, review mood tracking, and help people apply new strategies to everyday situations.
