About LaQuanda

Dr. LaQuanda Wiggins is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, relationships, grief, career questions, and coping with life changes. She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral, narrative, psychodynamic, and solution-focused approaches to help people address specific problems.

Her work begins with listening and clarifying the issues a person brings. She offers straightforward conversation about symptoms, patterns, and triggers. From there she and the client plan practical steps to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.

Dr. Wiggins uses cognitive behavioral methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She draws on client-centered techniques to keep the client's priorities central. Narrative therapy helps people reframe problems and separate identity from difficulty.

In sessions she addresses common concerns such as caregiver stress, workplace issues, communication problems, domestic violence impacts, forgiveness, post-traumatic stress, and building self-love. She also supports people facing career transitions and grief related to loss.

Her sessions mix short-term problem-solving with longer exploration when needed. Progress is tracked through clear goals and steps that can be practiced between meetings. People who prefer direct, practical conversation about problems may find this approach useful.

How key approaches inform online sessions

Client-centered therapy keeps the client's priorities at the center. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, follows the client's lead on what feels most urgent, and checks in about goals each session. This approach helps when someone needs to prioritize what to address first.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online sessions can use CBT to break down problems into manageable steps, practice skills, and set short experiments to try between meetings. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their problems. In remote sessions this can involve reviewing patterns, drafting new narratives, and finding alternative ways to describe difficult events. It helps separate a person's identity from the challenges they face.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration includes checking what is helping and adapting the plan as sessions progress.

The specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. One practical benefit of online meetings is fitting sessions into a busy week without travel. Remote sessions can also make shorter check-ins easier and reduce time away from work or caregiving duties.
