About LaRaye
LaRaye Lyles is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as LGBT concerns, parenting strain, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and attention-related difficulties. Sessions are conducted in English and reflect her long practice in California.
She focuses on concrete, goal-oriented conversations. She helps people sort priorities, strengthen communication, and tackle motivation and concentration problems. When clients bring questions about identity, gender dysphoria, or prejudice, she addresses those topics directly and respectfully.
Her work often includes exploring attachment patterns and family of origin dynamics. She also assists people navigating blended family issues, separation or divorce, and commitment or relationship communication problems. Practical skills and clearer thinking are common targets in sessions. Her approach is evidence-focused and responsive to each person's circumstances. New clients complete a short questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location.

How her approaches translate to online work
LaRaye describes her clinical work as using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete change. One common approach is behavior-focused work that identifies small, practical steps to improve concentration, motivation, and task follow-through; this helps with ADHD-related focus and daily routines. Another strand addresses attachment and relationship patterns by mapping how past family interactions shape current communication and trust; that work aims to change repeated interaction cycles and reduce conflict.Choosing a therapeutic approach is collaborative. She will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences, and adjust methods as those goals evolve. That conversation happens early and continues as progress is evaluated.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. It also permits shorter or more frequent appointments when people need focused support between larger sessions. Confirm the exact session options available with her when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first appointment.
