More about LaTanya
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LMSW
As a licensed therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop resilience and self-understanding, particularly when facing challenges like depression, anxiety, family dynamics, and life transitions.
With a deep commitment to culturally responsive care, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and build meaningful strategies for personal growth. My clinical background is rooted in understanding the nuanced ways stress, self-esteem, and interpersonal relationships intersect.
I believe in a collaborative therapeutic process that honors each person's unique journey. By combining evidence-based techniques with genuine empathy, I aim to empower clients to discover their inner strengths and develop effective coping mechanisms. My goal is to walk alongside you as you work towards healing and personal transformation.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
