I practice mindfulness daily and want to help clients realize its amazing benefits. Other therapies that I use is narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I use emotionally focused therapy, family systems, and Gottman Method in marriage therapy, and have found together they are very successful in transforming relationships. I utilize many different therapy ideas because everyone is unique. I work from a holistic view, believing all systems of the body physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual, help in the healing process. My therapy style involves understanding the client from their point of view. I have worked with anxiety, depression, grief, complex trauma, adoption issues, adjustment disorders, and spiritual abuse.
I provide premarital counseling, marriage therapy, sex therapy, and individual therapy. My experience includes working with couples, families, college students, and children from age 8 to 18. I graduated with a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy, with a certificate in Trauma Therapy. But she is also happy staying at home, reading from her large collection of books, watching movies, or working in her yard. She has a passion for traveling and exploring new places and cultures. She is always planning her next road trip.
When Laverna is not working, she is always open to new adventures. She has found truth stabilizes her when unexpected events have changed her life. Laverna’s priority is her Christian faith. It was during those years as a nurse when she realized how each of the systems of the body can interfere or assist in the healing process. She incorporates her medical background in the therapy process. Thirteen of those years were as a hospice nurse, so end of life care and grief counseling has been a big part of her life. Laverna worked as an RN for 20 years before becoming a therapist, graduating with her bachelor’s degree from Baylor University.
