About Rolanda

Rolanda Wray is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in the District of Columbia with 18 years of professional experience. She helps people who feel stuck after life changes, who are questioning direction, or who want clearer goals in work and relationships. Common concerns she addresses include relationship struggles, low self-esteem, motivation, and coping with major transitions.

She also offers executive and professional coaching for people navigating career shifts or leadership challenges. In sessions she focuses on practical steps and clear conversation. She works with clients on communication problems, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, post-traumatic stress, and questions about life purpose.

Rolanda adapts the session plan to the concerns a person brings. Meetings tend to center on setting realistic goals, improving everyday routines, and practicing better ways to communicate. The approach is straightforward and focused on what helps someone move forward in concrete ways.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support decision making, regain confidence, and manage stress. People who want help sorting priorities or rebuilding momentum after a change may find this style useful. Rolanda emphasizes respect and sensitivity in conversations while keeping the work practical.

To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location. Confirm current session options before booking to ensure they match your needs.

Evidence-based approaches for online sessions

Rolanda draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people regain direction and manage stress. One approach focuses on goal-oriented work that breaks larger changes into small steps. This helps when someone is unclear about next moves after a career shift or relationship change. Another approach emphasizes skills for communication and confidence building, using practiced exercises to improve everyday interactions and self-talk.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work together. The therapist and client review the person’s needs, goals, and preferences and then choose techniques to try. This collaborative process means methods can change as goals become clearer.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people meet with a licensed professional from a different location when that suits their life. Ask about current formats and scheduling to see how sessions could fit into your routine.
