About LaDonna

LCSW in Mississippi with eight years of clinical experience, LaDonna Day helps people who are coping with grief, self-esteem struggles, stress, anxiety, relationship worries, career questions, and life transitions. She also focuses on compassion fatigue and related concerns like abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, and blended family dynamics. LaDonna's stated methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness.

LaDonna works directly with clients to name current stressors and set practical goals. Sessions are described as open and nonjudgmental so clients can talk about their thoughts and feelings. She uses CBT to examine unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and applies mindfulness practices to build steady attention and reduce reactivity.

Her work often centers on practical skills people can use between sessions. That can mean learning ways to manage anxiety, rebuilding confidence after loss, or practicing communication strategies for strained relationships. She also addresses longer-running patterns such as dependent behavior, codependency, and control issues with step-by-step techniques and check-ins on progress.

LaDonna brings attention to life-stage and caregiving concerns, including aging and fatherhood matters, and supports people navigating adoption or blended family questions. She helps clients weigh options and make decisions that fit their daily life and responsibilities.

People who prefer a clear, skills-focused approach and brief mindfulness practices may find this style a good match. To begin, follow the site's booking steps to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

LaDonna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness in her stated practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and confidence issues. Mindfulness trains attention to the present moment and reduces reactive habits, which can help with grief, overwhelm, and compassion fatigue.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and daily routines. That planning includes practical decisions about which skills to practice between sessions and how often to check progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow short check-in sessions when needed. It can also accommodate people who want to focus on skill practice, homework review, and stepwise changes without a large time commitment at each visit.
