Laquanya Spann, LCMHC

Laquanya Spann is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with 23 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and depression. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Her work centers on tailoring conversations and a plan to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on practical steps to manage overwhelming feelings and improve day-to-day interactions. She listens for what matters most to the client and adjusts the pace and focus based on that feedback.

Over two decades of practice have included helping people address communication problems, guilt and shame, and loneliness. She also supports those facing infidelity, jealousy, struggles with life purpose, and veterans and armed forces issues. Multicultural concerns and social anxiety are additional areas she addresses.

In meetings she aims to create a respectful space where people can talk honestly about their experiences. The goal is to find clearer ways to cope, make decisions, and rebuild trust in relationships when it’s been damaged. She emphasizes concrete skills alongside listening and validation.

Laquanya guides clients through steps at a pace that fits them. She encourages people to be gentle with themselves during change and to celebrate small progress. Taking that first step to seek help is framed as an important act of courage.

Evidence-based methods and how they work online

Laquanya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make changes. One common approach focuses on practical coping strategies and behavioral changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood. These techniques teach clear skills for handling stress, interrupting unhelpful thinking patterns, and increasing activities that boost well-being.

Another emphasis is on improving communication and relationship patterns. This work looks at how people express needs, respond to conflict, and rebuild trust after hurt. It can include role practice, feedback, and small experiments to try between sessions so progress is visible.

Finding the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try approaches that fit a person’s goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to decide what to focus on and how quickly to move.

If you are considering online work, confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people keep continuity of care when life or location changes, while the therapist helps tailor session length and pacing to each person’s needs.
