Light Heart Therapy

High Quality Virtual Therapy Services

We offer safe, effective therapeutic services that actually make a difference for you and your life. We know that it is absolutely possible to move from surviving to thriving in every area of your life and we are here to support your journey towards that. Our clients tell us things like, “I finally feel like I can breathe,” “It feels like you get me, like I matter,”, “It’s so refreshing not to have to work so hard to prove myself”, and “I am seeing improvements in my relationship and career”.

We celebrate your humanity and honor your resilience, strength, courage, and beauty—even when you can’t yet see it yourself. Whether you’re navigating the complexities of your marginalized identities or seeking a place where you don’t have to carry the weight of the world alone, you’re welcome here.

Therapy with Lawanda (she)

You Don’t Have to Keep Repeating the Past

I help my clients heal wounds from childhood trauma that continue to affect their relationships, confidence, and choices today.

Decades later, childhood trauma can continue to impact our lives in ways we don’t always recognize. This can show up as anxiety, second-guessing ourselves, struggling in relationships, or feeling stuck in situations we want to change.

If you’re ready to not only understand these patterns, but break free from what’s keeping you stuck, and create a life and relationships that feel right for you, I would be happy to meet with you to see if we’d be a good fit working together.

Healing is possible. Your past doesn’t have to determine the rest of your life.

Therapy with Phoenix (she/they)

Are you a high-performer on the edge of burnout ready to set boundaries that honor & include your own needs?

I support people who are committed to growth and excellence while learning how to rest and honor their own needs too. Let me help you contribute to your family, communities, and organizations in ways that are actually sustainable and nourishing for you.

I help my clients build stronger boundaries, shift limiting beliefs, and regulate their nervous system. Through validation, perspective-building, and nervous system support, my clients are able to create real, lasting change that is more fully aligned with the life they desire.

Testimonials

I had seen 4 to 5 therapists before I met Phoenix and she is the first that has made me feel seen and heard. For the first time in my life, I have self-confidence and inner peace. Phoenix has guided me to develop and find my strength, she continues to share the tools on how to conquer my past, live in my present and embrace the challenges that may arise in my future. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking healing and who is ready to put in the work. She’s worth it!

anonymous client, 2024

As a fellow therapist I spend a lot of time holding other people, but it’s not easy for me to feel met and understood by therapists, so I have struggled to shop for a good therapist. Finding Lawanda was very lucky—I can actually rest in her presence and feel immense, genuine support and understanding from her. She helped me through the most challenging year of my life; through postpartum depression, a community crisis, and the loss of a dear friend. She is playful and deep, kind and capable, open hearted and open minded, honest and nuanced. I was transformed by my work with her.
