ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS!

comfortable office setting

Hi, Welcome to You Are Enough!

I’m LaShanda Collins, a licensed professional counselor lifespan therapist specializing in working with children, as well as adults who have reached a crossroad in life. If your child is struggling with emotional challenges-depression and negative thought patterns, behavioral issues-oppositional defiance, anger, impulse control, ADHD, confidence and self-worth, I’m here to help them develop healthy coping strategies and build resilience."

I also provide therapy for adults facing major life transitions-college, childhood trauma, self-harm, and emotional struggles. If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed, I can help you work through these challenges and create a path forward toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Are you a PLPC looking for guidance and support on your journey to becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor? I am currently accepting PLPCs for supervision and mentorship. Together, we'll work on developing your skills, building confidence, and navigating the path toward licensure. Let’s take the next step in your professional growth and make a meaningful impact in the lives of those you serve.

I accept Aetna-Medicaid, a host of other insurances, as well as private pay, to make therapy more accessible to you. Together, we’ll explore your unique needs, set personalized goals, and help you or your child create lasting change. If life feels heavy and you’re unsure where to turn, now is the time to reach out-I'm here to help!

Schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit for working together.

  • To start, I offer a complimentary consultation to assess your needs and determine whether we are a suitable match for working together. Should we decide to proceed, my standard session fee is $120.00. Please note that this rate may vary if you are utilizing out-of-network benefits.

  • I am in-network with Aetna-Medicaid and accept a total of 149 different insurance plans. Additionally, I accept private pay.

    If your plan includes out-of-network benefits, you may be eligible for reimbursement. Most insurance companies will reimburse a portion of my fee if you submit a superbill, which I will provide.

    Please note that insurance companies typically only cover specific types of therapy and may require access to your private health information, including progress notes, goals, payment details, and session limits. Additionally, many clients have high-deductible plans, meaning you may need to pay out-of-pocket until the deductible is met.

    Paying privately for therapy allows you more flexibility and control over your sessions, including the option for longer sessions, which can be beneficial for certain therapeutic approaches.

  • First Appointment: The initial session typically includes an assessment to gather information about your background, concerns, and therapy goals.

    Discussion: You'll share your reasons for seeking therapy, any relevant mental health history, and the issues you wish to address.
