About Lavon
She draws on six years as a clinical social worker and a long career in child care and supportive roles. That background includes work as a licensed child care provider, a therapeutic foster parent, and roles supporting people with special needs. Those experiences shape how she notices practical barriers and strengths in everyday routines.
In sessions she considers the whole picture around a person - their relationships, community, medical and educational needs - using a person-in-environment framework. She pairs that view with evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address thoughts, habits, and reactions that maintain stress or interfere with goals.
She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy to help with patterns of thinking and healing from difficult events. Lavon also uses Narrative, Solution-Focused, Client-Centered, and Mindfulness techniques to build coping skills, increase motivation, and clarify next steps.
Her style emphasizes collaboration: the client brings expertise about their life and Lavon helps identify changeable steps. She aims to build a compassionate working relationship that supports gradual progress toward clearer goals and better daily functioning.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Lavon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving. This approach breaks problems into manageable parts and is often used for anxiety, depression, and habits that interfere with daily life.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the effects of difficult or harmful experiences. This approach helps people process upsetting memories and learn skills to reduce their emotional intensity over time.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful.
