Sometimes people with the worst pasts end up creating the best futures. It is my goal as a therapist to help you reach that future. We all have struggles, failures, and regrets. The acknowledgement of having these battles is the greatest step forward. No matter what obstacles you bring to my office, you can expect to be met with non-judgement, compassion, professionalism, and authenticity. I believe that a solid and honest therapeutic relationship is the foundation for positive growth and change.

“Each day yields another opportunity to strive to become a better version of yourself. I’m passionate about counseling because I too have learned that when life becomes uncertain and difficult to navigate, counseling is the tool that gives voice where you are silent, it embraces you in areas you feel broken, it pours into your empty places to fill you with hope, clarification, and renewed expectation that you will overcome your challenges and accomplish your goals. You will win!” Latoya has vast experience working with children, adolescents and adults by way of individual, group, couples, and family therapy.

Trauma is a silent story within our bodies, shaping our relationships with ourselves and others. The decisions you make while navigating the depths of trauma are not failures but survival strategies. Just as one wouldn't criticize someone for struggling to swim through a storm, you cannot judge yourself for how you dealt with unhealed trauma. Healing involves healing these wounds from within. You are not broken. You are a perfectly functioning human being, reacting to traumatic experiences exactly how you need to survive. Together, we can work towards understanding and healing these wounds so you to move beyond just surviving.

There are times when stress and painful circumstances overwhelm a person's capacity to function effectively. Often, such crises also provide opportunities to understand oneself, others, and the world more deeply. I believe the therapeutic relationship provides a healing environment through which to find understanding, along with symptom relief, improved relationships and functioning, and movement toward living life in a more purposeful and meaningful manner.

A trusting therapist-client relationship empowers my clients to manage challenging life situations and align their values, goals, and vision with their lives. Therapy is interactive, and I provide challenges along with a unique understanding of each person's individual life and struggles. I believe in each client's individuality and therefore, do not stick with one theory or technique. Therapy is uniquely customized for each individual, couple, and family depending on needs and personalities.

An ideal client would be one that is "sick-and-tired-of-being-sick-and-tired." Do you know what I mean? If being "sick-and-tired" begins to describe how you feel, I'm the therapist for you! If you need a great listener, someone who will help you organize and prioritize what's most important to you, then I'm your therapist. To be clear, I'm only interested in clients who are ready to make changes in their lives. For maximum benefit, you must be ready to make changes in order to receive the maximum benefit of the time and money you are investing in yourself. After all, who has time and money to waste? Said no one.

We are a team in this. I believe in teamwork during therapy. If the client appears to be doing most of the work, then that is extreme progress. If I as the therapist is doing most of the work, then we may need to rethink and regroup on the treatment to best fit the client. It is the client's responsibility to communicate with therapist on any issues or any adjustments that needs to be made. I want to walk alongside those who are seeking reach a better end and better livelihoods.
