About LaTresa
LaTresa Hart is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 20 years of experience in social services. She helps adults and adolescents who are dealing with anxiety, depression, parenting strains, relationship stress, grief, trauma, and related concerns. LaTresa also supports people facing issues with addiction, anger, ADHD, and career or financial stress.
She draws on practical, problem-focused methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions aim to identify patterns that make daily life harder and try small, testable changes. Mindfulness techniques are used to help manage intense emotions and attention, and Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term goals and track progress.
LaTresa has worked in schools and community settings, giving her experience with school-aged kids, adolescents, adults, and families affected by emotional or physical abuse. That background informs how she talks about family of origin issues, adoption and foster care concerns, communication problems, and divorce or separation. She also addresses multicultural stresses, prejudice, and discrimination.
Her approach is interactive and strengths-based. Sessions typically include practical skills, discussion, and goal-setting rather than long lectures. The focus is on what can change now to reduce stress and improve relationships.
LaTresa practices in Indiana and conducts work in English. She uses her clinical tools to help people handle real-life challenges at home, at work, and in relationships.
How sessions work
How CBT and Mindfulness fit into online work
LaTresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her sessions. CBT involves tracking thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to spot patterns that keep problems going, and then testing small changes to reduce anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful reactions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what they want to change and find their own reasons to move forward. These approaches are practical and skill-focused, so much of the work translates well to remote conversations and short homework tasks between sessions. Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work together; she will help identify which approaches match a person's goals and preferences through conversation and early sessions.
The site biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a workday, allow a shorter check-in during a break, or let them practice skills at home after a session. The focus is on making therapy fit daily life and on using clear, practical techniques you can try between meetings.
