Hello & Welcome.
Well Grounded to me means a lot of different things but overall it’s about having a regulated nervous system. It means, making sure your cup is full before you try to fill others. It’s realizing that putting yourself first doesn’t mean you can’t show up in your other relationships. My goal is to help you find ways to reclaim your time, energy and power, so that you can be well & stay grounded. I want you to feel grounded in your shoes, socks and on this earth so that you can take up the space that surrounds you. You have to be grounded before you can blossom and you deserve to bloom.
My name is Dominique and I’m a licensed clinical professional counselor. I received my masters in clinical mental health counseling from DePaul University in Chicago, Illinois.
Prior to my work in private practice, I worked in non-profit assisting those who needed a higher level of care (i.e. schizophrenia, borderline personality, bi-polar, etc). My role as their therapist was to help them develop the skills necessary to function effectively within the community along with medication management.
As a therapist, I strive to decolonize therapy. I’m notorious for keeping it real and calling out any BS that stands in between you and creating lasting change.
Sometimes life presents us with unthinkable challenges, and we feel lost in the chaos of it all. This may cause us to spiral down the rabbit hole, forcing us to get caught in the cycle of negative thoughts that holds us back from creating positive changes in our lives. Despite our best efforts, we still find ourselves dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, low self-esteem, pressures from work and an inability to find balance in our lives. You might feel stuck in patterns of thoughts or behaviors that are making it hard for you to fully engage in life. This may lead you to feeling powerless and alone asking yourself, “how can I do better?” Everything can feel more difficult when things seem out of our control. When we strengthen the relationships with ourselves, it reboots our mind body connection, allowing life to feel more manageable, balanced and fulfilling.
My therapeutic style is holistic, considering the whole person with deep respect instead of focusing solely on the current symptoms you may come in with. I apply principles of evidence-based treatments while implementing mindfulness-based techniques. I do this through working collaboratively, with compassion, acceptance and humor. As your therapist, my goal is to help you learn the skills that will help highlight your strengths, lower stress levels and allow you to live more mindfully. I strive to help you discover what it means to live intuitively, embrace your vulnerabilities and learn how to challenge and face uncertainty with more confidence. I will guide you on how to be present and deepen your relationships with others, so you will leave feeling empowered and ready to live more authentically.

I’m Laroneje (Lair-a-knee), a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who really enjoys getting to know my clients and deepening the therapeutic relationship as we work together to identify what’s causing your concerns and finding effective tools and solutions to address them. I have been a therapist for five years and have worked with people of all ages, in colleges, private practice, EAP and non-profit settings. I consider myself to be fun and welcoming; you can guarantee that we’re going to laugh and find humor in what you’re going through. I’ve been known to be direct and value accountability, so you can expect to be called out on unhelpful behaviors that don’t align with your wellbeing or goals. My clients appreciate this style as it helps them grow and change for the better, and they know that I’m not here to waste their time. My specialties are anxiety disorders, depression, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is holistic, using interventions from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy primarily. My goal as a therapist is to make therapy more accessible and normalized for historically marginalized communities.
