With this training as well as post graduate experience, Lanae is well versed in working with individuals, couples, children and most importantly, the entire family system. It is her belief that each member of a family affects the function of the whole system and is passionate about working toward a healthy family unit. "I believe that each person has a unique set of circumstances, issues and coping strategies to help them manage their problems. My mission, as a therapist is to be respectful of each person's differences, understand the big picture as well as intricacies of a dilemma, and bring to light strengths and resources that may be blocked or hidden. "

Lanae considers herself a very adept therapist. Having been in the role of mother, wife, ex-wife, step mother, grandmother, sister, daughter and friend, her real life experiences have added greatly to her ability really "get it" when presented with an issue and to speak not only from a professional point of view but also from personal experience when strategizing for solutions with her clients.
