Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Associate / Lead Clinician

Life Coach

Professional Artist

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate, published author, and professional artist, I bring both clinical expertise and creativity into my work. I believe healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and I’m passionate about creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or pretense.

I take joy in working with teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, heartbreak, divorce, and recovery from narcissistic or emotionally harmful relationships. I’m especially drawn to supporting people through life transitions—the moments where everything feels uncertain, heavy, or unclear—and helping them reconnect with their sense of self, strength, and direction.

My approach is compassionate, intuitive, and deeply personalized. I don’t just focus on symptoms—I focus on you as a whole person. Together, we explore your experiences, build emotional awareness, and develop tools that actually fit your life.

As both a therapist and artist, I naturally weave creativity into the healing process. Whether through reflection, storytelling, or expressive techniques, I help clients process emotions in ways that feel authentic and freeing. Therapy with me is not just about coping—it’s about growth, clarity, and becoming a more grounded, confident version of yourself. Ultimately, finding your "Happy".

Stories of Happiness

KYRA H.

La’Mora is the most comprehensive and exemplary therapist I’ve ever worked with! I believe that therapy has the power to change the entire trajectory of your life and that is exactly what has happened to me. La’Mora has equipped me with the tools to thrive no matter what season of life I’m in. The words “thank you” will never convey my full gratitude, but my hope in writing this review is that she can have the same impact on others!

I can’t say enough good things about La’Mora. She has been incredibly supportive, patient, and understanding throughout my therapy journey. She has created a safe space where I feel heard and never judged, which has made such a difference for me. Her compassion and guidance have truly helped me grow, and I’m so grateful to have found her. ♥️

We met La’Mora at a time where our family was going through a very difficult experience. La’Mora has been and continues to be a great support and guide as we identify our family’s barriers and strengths. During sessions we feel seen and heard regardless of the topic of conversation. As per our child “the office is calming, I’m very comfortable with her, and La’Mora gives great feedback!”

I have been a client of Ms. Hardy for a few months now. She has been a breath of fresh air. She is very attentive and supportive of her patients. She always knows what to say and how to say it to make you feel comfortable. She is so relatable, it's like talking to an old friend.
