I have been working with Dr. Lakawthra Cox for close to a year and have found her approach to therapy immensely helpful. She has helped me develop critical life skills, teaching me both the theory behind the skill and how to practically apply it to my personal situation.

Dr. Cox helped me overcoming some of the obstacles that had me hold back for most of my life. I thought I would never be able overcome my grief but with their help I managed to find a way to cope without damaging who I am. We peeled layer after layer and addressed all of my concerns and fears. Even though English is not my first language Dr. Cox is understanding and sympathetic and a very good listener. I’m forever thankful for all the progress they managed to make me do in less than a year!
