About Latoya

Latoya LaGuerre is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Georgia with three years of professional experience. She helps people facing family conflict, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, stress, anxiety, and related concerns. Latoya works with adults who are managing life transitions, caregiving strain, or problems that affect home life.

She uses client-centered methods to focus conversations on what matters most to the individual. That means the person sets priorities and Latoya helps them name and work toward practical changes. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and mindfulness tools to build awareness and calm.

In sessions she talks through immediate worries and everyday coping strategies. She can help people handle anger, low mood, addictive behaviors, or the fallout from discrimination and multicultural stress. She also offers support around adoption, foster care, abandonment, and young adult concerns.

Latoya brings three years of direct practice to her work and holds the credential Clinical Social Worker (CSW) in addition to the LCSW. Her approach is straightforward and goal-focused, with attention to the realities of family life and parenting demands.

To begin, a person completes a short questionnaire and schedules a first session. Latoya works in English and practices in Georgia.

How sessions work

How Latoya’s approaches translate to online work

Latoya draws on client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on whatever the person brings. That approach emphasizes listening, clarifying what matters, and working together on concrete next steps. It’s useful for parenting stress, family conflict, and caregiver strain.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks down patterns of thought and behavior into manageable pieces. CBT offers skills for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness techniques are used alongside these approaches to help reduce reactivity and build short, practical habits for calming and focus.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Latoya collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and daily life. She adjusts strategies over time based on what’s helpful and what isn’t.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy around work, caregiving, or school by avoiding travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. If you have questions about how sessions will be scheduled or what to expect, complete the short questionnaire to get information before your first appointment.
