About Latoya
She believes people sometimes need someone to just listen and other times need skills to cope. Sessions focus on building rapport and identifying manageable steps toward change. Latoya uses empathy, patience, and clear guidance to help clients work through upsetting emotions.
Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including relationship problems, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, anger, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She also supports people facing loss, life transitions, co-occurring disorders, and challenges tied to sexual orientation and identity.
Latoya draws from several approaches to match the person in front of her. Methods include client-centered techniques, dialectical behavior therapy strategies, emotionally focused ideas, existential perspectives, and mindfulness practices. She adapts these methods to each person’s goals and pace.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect people and schedule an initial session. Latoya describes therapy as a collaborative process focused on practical steps and emotional relief.
How her approaches translate to online work
Latoya uses client-centered work that focuses on the person’s goals and feelings, offering a listening, nonjudgmental stance to help people feel heard and understood. This approach helps with stress, low mood, and relationship concerns by centering sessions on what matters most to the client.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy techniques that teach concrete skills for regulating emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be practiced between sessions and are useful for anxiety, anger, and coping with overwhelming feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Latoya will discuss options and help decide which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That process is collaborative and can shift as goals change.
