About LaRanda

LaRanda Jason is a licensed clinical social worker with years of experience helping people navigate big life shifts. She practices in Louisiana and draws on nine years of clinical work to support people facing grief, stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Her approach is direct and respectful.

She listens first, then helps set clear, manageable goals. Conversations are tailored to each person's needs so practical steps can follow. LaRanda uses methods that focus on what a person wants to change and how to get there.

Background and approach

She blends problem-solving techniques with mindfulness and skills for managing strong emotions. This mix can help with mood challenges, addiction-related struggles, and coping after loss. She also supports people dealing with career stress, parenting pressures, adoption and foster care issues, and end-of-life concerns.

Sessions often include short exercises, skill practice, and planning between meetings to keep progress steady. LaRanda aims to make therapy a collaborative effort. She works with clients to track what helps and adjusts the plan when needed.

The goal is often clearer thinking, steadier moods, and better ways to handle everyday stressors.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's priorities and provides a space to be heard and understood. It helps people clarify what matters to them and shape goals that feel realistic.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into smaller steps and practicing new responses.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on skills for managing intense emotions and improving how a person handles conflict and stress. It includes techniques for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. This may mean trying one approach for a while and adapting it based on what helps.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper exchanges, phone sessions can suit those with limited bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum on progress.
