Laniea Golden, MEd, LPC | laniea@bravetomorrow.net
There are times in life, when stressors can become overwhelming, and a need for an outside perspective comes. I have experience working with clients with a variety of concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, suicidal ideations, and relationship issues. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their needs and their ultimate goals. Together, we can identify strategies and solutions to cope and ultimately move into a more positive space.
I enjoy working with people of all ages, using both talk and play therapy techniques. I am able to work with both individuals, couples, and family. I have training in play therapy and Trauma Focused CBT. I believe that through building a strong therapeutic relationship, I can assist my clients in reaching their goals.
Currently, I am available to meet with clients either in person or via telehealth. I'm able to offer flexibility with my scheduling, with evening appointments being available.

John Nwosu, EdS, LPC, NCC | jnwosu1@bravetomorrow.net
Hello everyone! I am a human developer who believes in helping improve the fit between people in their environment. I work with clients on making meaning and sense as I support their search for solutions to complex problems. We are not meant to do this alone and you don’t have to!
I graduated with a degree in Chemistry from Georgia Southern University but went on to pursue a career in school and mental health counseling and therapy. I was born into an Nigerian and African-American family filled with high levels of love, support, and expectations. I’ve had to learn coping skills to deal with pressure, anxiety, and depression, and the need for these things is what attracted me to the mental health profession. I currently work as a middle school counselor.
Life has shown me that the path often does not look like the plan. My approach to counseling and therapy embraces uncertainty in order to develop key skills that prepare the client for a wide range of potential situations. I believe the client is the authority on themselves and is responsible for collaborating with me to find the best way forward. I have experience working with the following areas: identity development (race and gender), equity, problem solving, stress, anxiety and depression, grief, learning and self-management strategies, leadership, financial literacy, career development, life planning, and more.
