Hi, my name is Lenna and I am a LPC-MH, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health and I am a QMHP, which stands for Qualified Mental Health Professional. I have my Master of Arts degree in counseling with an emphasis in school and family counseling. My 15+ years of experience has included time in the school setting as well as in private practice helping people of all ages. I have counseled people suffering from depression, anxiety, stress, abuse, trauma, attention issues, anger, relationship issues, aggression, as well as various other issues. My passion is adoption and foster care along with trauma and underachievement.
I am here to help you on your life journey as you make decisions, encounter trials and challenges, and experience struggles that you did not expect. Through empathy and compassion along with exploration and guidance in the counseling relationship, I believe you can heal from whatever hurts you have experienced in your life. Individual counseling provides a safe space to explore, practice, and develop skills that will make you more of who you want to be. It is an honor to walk through this part of your life with you.
When I am not providing counseling services, I am a mom to 9 children of which my husband and I adopted 6 of our sons and daughters from foster care. I also help run the family business and we are very active members of our church, school, and community.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
