Working with Lakawthra was a lovely experience. The tools she gave me truly did help so much in my journey to feeling better. Her system is very orderly and I believe that it works for many different kinds of people. She was very knowledgeable about the concepts she presented to me, and she made them easy to understand and practice :)

Dr. Cox helped me overcoming some of the obstacles that had me hold back for most of my life. I thought I would never be able overcome my grief but with their help I managed to find a way to cope without damaging who I am. We peeled layer after layer and addressed all of my concerns and fears. Even though English is not my first language Dr. Cox is understanding and sympathetic and a very good listener. I’m forever thankful for all the progress they managed to make me do in less than a year!

This therapist gets us. She's punctual in her replies, offers a variety of ways to help us, and is really present with us during our sessions. I'm hopeful that things will get better in our relationship and I could not recommend her more!
