What People are Saying 

“La Ronda Smith is amazingly encouraging. She gave me a lot of life tools which helped me gain a clear understanding of who I am, in just a small time frame of three months. La Ronda’s inspiring and supportive spirit helped me through what I considered to be a very difficult and challenging point in my life. She really helped me understand the importance of life and to focus on the problems within myself because that is the only thing I can change. She helped me identify my growth, validated my accomplishments, and coached me through my mistakes in each situation. I feel I could not have had a better experience with anyone else. My goal was I wanted happiness by the end of the three months, with her help, I got it. I thank La Ronda for everything she has help me through and especially for giving me the tools I needed to have a successful life because she truly cares!”

"La Ronda has been coaching and mentoring me since 2013 well before she started her practice, I was a young student at 25 just gone through many tough life obstacles, I did not know how I was going to finish school, I lost all hope and faith to the point I didn’t care anything about life anymore, as peers in undergrad La Ronda became my friend, a mentor and a Big Sis, with no judgement, expectations, or disappointments, she gave me spiritual guidance and motivation without me even sitting in on one of her sessions, I am now 33 and loving my life and I know whenever I am overwhelmed, scared, and unsure La Ronda is always there with not only her expertise but her empathy and wisdom, She is AWESOME!”
