Hi, I'm Lakyah! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a deep belief that healing happens through connection—both with ourselves and with others. I graduated from the Mercer School of Medicine with my Master of Family Therapy. I work with adolescents, teens, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, attachment injuries, and stress. I work with clients from all backgrounds and have a strong interest in supporting diverse and minority populations.

Jami Rieffel, LMFT

Founder & Therapist, CoAuthored Therapy

I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels like a story we write together. I bring a collaborative, narrative-based approach to working with individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to create a space where clients feel both supported and empowered to re-author the stories that shape their lives.

I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University, where I focused on systems theory and narrative practice. Over the years, I’ve worked with diverse populations supporting clients through challenges such as relationship transitions, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Georgia. I hold Bachelor’s degrees in Legal Studies and Feminist Studies from the University of California Santa Cruz and a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. My specialty is addressing life transitions, particularly the perinatal spectrum.

I am passionate about empowering my clients to find healing from past traumas, hurts, and hangups, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their story, and their relationship with God. Freedom to live the life you desire is not out of reach.

You don’t have to be chained to your past any longer. We will reprocess those negative life experiences and traumas to increase your self-awareness so that you can make intentional decisions about how you want to show up in the world. We will dispel the old, tired myth that “praying about it” should be enough. Instead, I will support you in being healed.
