LaShawnda Gayden, LCSW

LaShawnda Gayden is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Indiana with ten years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, family conflict, and anger concerns. Her approach focuses on practical steps people can use in everyday life.

She begins sessions by listening to what matters most right now. Clients can expect straightforward conversations about triggers, patterns, and what helps calm things down. She uses evidence-based techniques to build skills rather than relying on vague promises.

In therapy she helps people identify how thoughts and behaviors feed anger and stress. Together they practice ways to interrupt those cycles, manage intense feelings, and communicate differently with partners or family members. Sessions also address anxiety and low mood that often sit behind outbreaks of anger.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She explains tools, tries them in session, and adapts what works for each person. Progress is paced by the client and focused on usable changes.

Clients who come for relationship or family concerns work on clearer boundaries and steadier reactions. Those dealing with workplace stress get strategies to reduce tension and respond more effectively. Her background in social work informs a practical, resource-oriented way of helping.
