Deia Lawrence, LPC

Deia Lawrence is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin with 18 years of experience helping people navigate stress, trauma, relationship struggles, and life transitions. She works with a wide range of clients, including survivors of sexual and physical trauma, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ community, offering skilled support for anxiety, depression, PTSD, questions of sexual identity, feelings of marginalization, and challenges tied to social identity. Her practice also addresses parenting concerns, career issues, grief and loss, intimacy and relationship problems, sleep difficulties, and caregiver strain.

Deia takes a holistic, integrative approach that attends to mind, body, and spirit. Her clinical work blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-informed strategies, along with stages of change principles, so that therapy is both empathic and results-oriented. She aims to create a collaborative process that honors each personâs history, cultural background, and goals while offering practical tools for coping and growth.

As a parent of a child with special needs, Deia brings personal insight to families facing similar challenges and serves on the board of a nonprofit supporting socioeconomically disadvantaged and Latino families of children with special needs. Outside of work she enjoys binge watching Jeopardy!, playing with her cat, and hosting gatherings for friends and family. She approaches every client with compassion, empathy, and respect, and is committed to empowering people to build fuller, more meaningful lives.
