LeLaina Romero
About
Hello, and welcome! My name is LeLaina Romero. I am a counseling psychologist licensed in North Carolina (Georgia license pending) and living in the Atlanta, Georgia area. I am also a spiritual director, singer, and songwriter. Whether working as a psychotherapist, professor, facilitator, or community musician, I have dedicated my time and energy to LGBTQIA+, BIPOC people, and those living at the intersections of those identities. Supporting people through the chronic stress and trauma of marginalization and oppression applies to my work with neurodivergent adults. To understand that we are whole and find spaces of belonging are deep needs that can be difficult to meet. My commitment is making this more possible for all of us.
Your way of being, moving through, and understanding the world are valid. And, when we don't conform to mainstream ways of being, we can be treated as problems. We are constantly asked to change who we are to make others comfortable. I understand what it means to move through a world that wasn't built for you, and I understand the extraordinary strengths that can grow from that experience. I listen deeply to your lived experience and help tap into your inner wisdom. We are collaborating to increase your self-understanding and what's possible for you.
