La-Toya Gaines
I'm more that just a family psychologist. As a busy mother, wife, and career-loving person myself, I've been there. I understand how hard it is to get everyone into the same room at dinner time, let alone into my office for a session. You want to know that the time you spend with me is worth it, and I don't blame you.
Band aids don't solve problems; however, working toward a solution everyone can agree upon, while developing life-long skills and tools to tackle future issues, does. Whatever has you seeking a family therapist, you'll leave each session with practical skills you can use to build a healthy, happy family together.
I have experience working with children and teens with a variety of concerns including behavioral and school issues. I also work with divorced and blended families, helping you navigate concerns unique to your family. Additionally, I work with individuals of all ages experiencing anxiety and depression.
