To provide counseling support that inspires each individual towards hope and wellness.

LaShanda Milner MA,LPC,CGRS

There may have been a shift in your core values and you need a safe space to re-discover, re-establish or simply be empowered to pursue a new life story. My goal is to encourage you to give yourself permission to lean into hard things; trusting that I will be competent, compassionate and attuned to walk beside you, holding space and support for you along the way.

Client Reviews

LaShanda helped me understand the emotion I felt in my grief would not always stay so consuming. She helped me recognize that grief is not the same for all people. LaShanda taught me tools to assist to calm myself when experiencing the overwhelming feelings of grief. I would highly recommend LaShanda's grief class to anyone experiencing a loss of any kind and no matter how long or short of time has passed since your loss. -Teri K

 

My counseling time with Mrs. Lashanda was a great experience for me. I was a little hesitant at first but it definitely helped me not only with grief but with other aspects as well. I never felt judged or uneasy, everything just flowed naturally. Not only did she help me but she made me laugh which helped me to be more comfortable as well & look forward to our sessions every week! -Kristen C

 

When I was at work in 2015, I got a phone call that my mother died and the first person I went to was LaShanda …to share that information and get the support I needed. She is a fantastic human, top-notch in listening & providing support and knows her stuff. I highly recommend her. -Kathy F

 

LaShanda speaks from her heart and has a plethora of knowledge and insight. If you are experiencing grief, I encourage you to attend. -Lynn D

Together let’s take a slow deep breath. You are not alone on this journey called life! I’ve had the privilege to work with children, teens and adults, as they navigate many life’s challenges. I provide a strengths based, non-judgmental presence while utilizing proven, evidence based approaches, that fosters a sense of safety, autonomy and hope.
