About LaNita

LaNita Dyer is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and bipolar mood concerns. She also supports people working through grief, low self-esteem, social anxiety and phobia, and challenges with sexuality or separation and divorce. LaNita writes in a straightforward way and focuses on practical steps clients can use right away.

Her style is respectful and warm. She listens first, then works with each person to build a plan that fits their life.

02

How LaNita works

Sessions are adapted to what feels most useful - short check-ins, goal-focused conversations, or deeper emotional work when it’s needed. LaNita uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small changes that lead to concrete improvements. She helps people spot strengths they can use and set clear, achievable goals.

This makes progress easier to track and keeps sessions focused on what matters most. With 12 years of professional experience, she draws on a range of practical strategies rather than one fixed method. She aims to make therapy feel manageable for people juggling busy schedules and strong emotions.

LaNita emphasizes self-love and steady steps toward greater confidence. People who reach out can expect a collaborative approach where the therapist and client decide next steps together. LaNita encourages honest conversation and treats everyone with sensitivity and respect.

Online support options

Solution-Focused Work Online and Practical Options

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying what is already working and building from there. It focuses on small, achievable changes and clear goals so progress can be measured between sessions. This approach is often helpful for stress, anxiety, motivation, and improving self-esteem.

When using brief goal-focused methods, sessions tend to be collaborative. The therapist will partner with the client to decide which techniques to try and adjust them over time. Finding the right fit is part of the process, and the therapist will help figure out what approach best matches a person’s goals and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make attendance easier. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can work when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick coping plans, or when someone prefers writing instead of speaking.

These options let people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or school schedules and keep consistent momentum between appointments.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
