More about Latoya
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in NYS. I have at least 7 years of clinical experience working as a clinician. I have worked with individuals who have had various concerns including: depression, drug and alcohol addiction, anxiety, self-esteem, life changes, relationship issues as well as physical abuse and traumatic experiences.
My counseling style is modern and warm. I believe in engaging in active listening and am a firm believer of treating others with respect and displaying compassion and empathy. My approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, person- centered therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy, and I am able to be eclectic in nature and tailoring to the needs of the individual.
It can be difficult and challenging to seek out help from others. I just want you to know that I am here to support you and when you are ready, feel free to reach out to me. No one should go through anything alone.
I look forward to hearing from you!

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

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.

Latoya has been a huge help!
Latoya always makes herself available to support my therapy needs!
She is absolutely amazing, if I could recommend her specifically to my other friends doing therapy, I would!
I’ve had many therapists before but Latoya is incredibly helpful and teaches me a lot about how to recognize my triggers
Latoya has changed my life. She's helped me through Some very stressful times and and I couldn't be where I am today without her.
Latoya has helped me change my life. She is compassionate and has been very helpful in helping me manage my anxiety. I feel confident, comfortable and safe.
She is a fantastic listener and I always feel better after every session, she’s great!
Latoya has been extremely helpful. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that she delivers excellent therapy even through a texting platform, which to me, seemed almost impossible at the time. Her advice has been really beneficial, but the most important thing was that I always felt heard and supported. She's a kind, positive and wholesome person, who is genuinely amazing at their job.
We've spoken twice. She is very understanding. I'm very appreciative of her willingness to humanize the situation
Latoya is one of the kindest, real, wholehearted people I’ve talked to. She was a wonderful resource in my counselling.
Latoya has had a tremendous impact on my recovery from the terrible depression I had incurred because of Covid and alcohol abuse. She has a wealth of knowledge, I’m comfortable speaking with her without judgement and she goes beyond the requirements to ensure my therapy needs are met.
She’s good keeps me out of my negative thought patterns
I had to go through a couple therapists before I found Latoya. She is always responding to my messages throughout the week and is amazing at putting things into a perspective that makes sense to me. I am so happy I found her and would definitely recommend her to everyone!!!
Latoya is resourceful, patient, and relatable. She took the time to evaluate the concerns I had and provided me with guidance on how to address these concerns. From sharing a personal anecdote to providing worksheets, she found a way to relate to my concern and guided my perspective on how I would overcome it. I loved my weekly chats with Latoya and will value her supportive feedback :)
This review comes after my very first session with Latoya, with whom I immediately felt safe and heard. She provides a space that feels safe for me to engage in honest dialogue about my vulnerabilities and anxious thoughts, and her experience makes me confident in her ability to help me develop the tools necessary for my personal growth
