Angela Sanders, LCSW

LaShundra Clark, LPC, is a doctoral-level Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience providing evidence-based mental health services to individuals, families, and groups. She earned a Doctor of Professional Counseling from Mississippi College and a Master of Science in Rehabilitation Counseling from Jackson State University. LaShundra is licensed in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, holds Board Certification in Telemental Health, and has completed EMDR therapy training. She serves as Clinical Director and LPC-S at Healing Minds Counseling Center, LLC, and specializes in depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, behavioral challenges, and work with teens, adults, couples, and families.

LaShundra is committed to transparency and believes genuine rapport is just as important as the therapeutic work itself. She offers a direct yet empathetic approach, meeting clients where they are and guiding them toward their goals rather than telling them what to do. Her relaxed, person-centered style primarily utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while incorporating mindfulness-based techniques.

LaShundra uses the first session as an opportunity to build connection beyond standard assessments, encouraging clients to openly share what brought them to therapy. She actively listens, validates experiences, and asks thoughtful questions to gain a full understanding of each client's needs. Together, they develop meaningful, personalized treatment goals while creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and at ease from the first session onward.

I trained as a therapist, and I mostly work with adults and older adults who want a space to be themselves without smoothing over the hard parts. Over the years I've worked with veterans, adolescents, older folks, and the LGBTQIA+ community, and what carries across all of them is a simple thing: people want to feel seen, heard, and supported. That's where I start.

My sessions are relaxed. There's room for real conversation, and honestly, there's room for laughter too. I don't think therapy has to be solemn to be serious. I lean on approaches like CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy, and I keep the work trauma-informed and culturally aware, so we're not pretending your context doesn't matter. First, I want to hear your story. Then we figure out together what actually matters to you and what you'd like to be different.

I'll offer support, and I'll also gently push where I think growth is waiting. I bring practical tools you can use in daily life, and I check in on how things are landing so we can adjust as we go. My hope is that you walk out feeling more confident, more resilient, and more able to handle things on your own.

Curious whether the two of us would click? That's exactly what a first visit is for.

I'm a therapist with a particular focus on grief and the ways loss reshapes a family. I started out as a hospice social worker back in 1999, sitting with people through death and dying, and that early work still informs how I approach nearly everything else. Over the years I've broadened well beyond hospice into substance use, ADHD, anxiety, depression, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and the particular tangle of navigating foster care and adoption.

I believe connection is the foundation of any positive growth, so my first priority is making the room feel like somewhere you can actually say the thing you came to say. My work is client centered. That means we go at the pace that fits you, and I lean on evidence-based methods like CBT, DBT, and EMDR depending on what you're working through, not the other way around. In an early session, expect me to do a lot of listening, ask about the challenges you're facing day to day, and be honest with you about what I'm noticing.

I see adults across the lifespan, including older adults, and when families are involved I encourage inclusion and diversity within them, because individual growth rarely happens in isolation. Wherever you are in this, and whatever brought you here, I want the work to feel like something we're doing together rather than something happening to you.

If any of that fits what you've been looking for, I'd be happy to talk.

I'm a therapist, and most of what I see is depression, anxiety, PTSD, adjustment struggles, and mood conditions like bipolar and schizoaffective disorder. I've worked in inpatient, outpatient, and virtual settings, with adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I've found that people arrive at very different points, some in crisis, some just tired of managing on their own. I offer individual, family, and couples work, and I've spent a lot of time helping people build emotional resilience, sharpen self-awareness, and strengthen the coping skills that carry them through hard stretches.

Honesty and trust matter a great deal to me, and I tend to be direct and goal-oriented rather than vague. Early on, I want to understand your background, what you're hoping for, and what you want out of therapy, so we can build a plan that actually fits your life and not a generic template. That plan usually includes realistic short-term and long-term goals, and we adjust as things shift. I'll be honest with you, and I'll expect that we can talk openly, with real mutual respect between us.

My training runs through Mississippi, where I completed my supervision hours at Mississippi State Hospital before becoming licensed in both Mississippi and Oklahoma.

If you've been quietly holding it together and want a straight-talking partner in the work, reach out and let's figure out where to start.
