About LaSonda

LaSonda Sylte is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Indiana with 23 years of experience. She helps people cope with stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, anger, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, and life transitions. She also supports people facing ADHD, compassion fatigue, career questions, and issues related to aging and caregiving.

She has worked across a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, end-of-life and hospice matters, and substance use challenges. Her practice includes support for those dealing with isolation, codependency, impulsivity, and difficult communication patterns. She has experience with people at different life stages and with varied backgrounds.

Her way of working is collaborative. She partners with clients to set goals and pick practical steps. Sessions focus on clear skills, real-life problem solving, and building tools that fit day-to-day life.

LaSonda draws on methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. These approaches are used to help manage emotions, change unhelpful thinking, and improve coping strategies.

People can expect straightforward conversation about challenges and options. She aims to be direct and respectful while helping clients test small changes and track progress over time.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while clarifying what matters most so they can take small action steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior, and teaches concrete techniques to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and body-awareness to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and emotion regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That choice can shift over time as needs change and progress is tracked.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy schedule by cutting travel time and making it easier to keep regular appointments. Online work can also allow for shorter check-ins, using video or audio when useful, and practicing skills between sessions so new habits transfer into everyday life.
