I am excited to work with clients who feel ready for change, are curious about themselves, their relationships, and the ways in which their experiences have shaped them. I have collaborated with individuals across the lifespan and families across their development to find greater joy, acceptance, and meaning within themselves. My clients describe me as energetic, compassionate, patient, and creative. I meet clients where they are and endeavor to walk with them through life's ups and downs. In my work I draw inspiration from Robyn Gobel, Pema Chödrön, and Dr. Raquel Martin.

I am honored to be exploring your healing journey with you. We live in a world where mental healthcare is stigmatized and self-care is a fix-all when what we really need is community care. Healing happens within the context of relationships. I hope to build therapeutic relationships with clients to help them flourish and meet their goals.

LaSwanna Donaldson

LaSwanna Donaldson

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


Wherever you are, we can start there. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience supporting individuals, families, and communities through a wide range of life challenges. I have worked with people from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate difficulties, recognize their strengths, set meaningful goals, and create lasting change.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, solution-focused, and goal-oriented. I strive to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe sharing their stories, concerns, and needs. I meet each client where they are, listen with intention, and build relationships grounded in trust, respect, empathy, and understanding.

I believe every client brings unique experiences, strengths, challenges, and goals to therapy. My role is to help clients understand what they are experiencing, identify barriers, and develop practical strategies for moving forward. I take a whole-person approach, considering the relationships, resources, life circumstances, and emotional needs that shape each person’s experience.

I am passionate about helping clients feel empowered to make positive changes. I support individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship or family concerns, major life transitions, or feelings of being stuck. My professional experience also includes supporting pregnant and postpartum mothers navigating depression, trauma, crises, life transitions, and the emotional and practical challenges of motherhood. This work has deepened my passion for perinatal mental health.

I believe asking for help is a sign of strength. My goal is to walk alongside each client, help them identify where they want to go, and support them as they work toward getting there.
