About Latoya

Latoya Claxton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with seven years of practice in Florida. She focuses on helping people move through tough periods in life. Latoya aims to be a steady, nonjudgmental presence for those who feel isolated, overwhelmed, or stuck.

Latoya listens first and then offers tools that fit each person’s situation. She helps with depression, anxiety, stress, grief, substance use concerns, and mood challenges such as bipolar disorder. She also supports people struggling with self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and relationship or career stress.

Her approach blends several methods to match what a person needs. Client-centered work creates space to tell your story. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds practical skills for managing strong emotions. Emotion-focused ideas help name and shift painful feelings.

Latoya believes therapy should feel collaborative and respectful. She brings patience and compassion and helps people set realistic steps toward change. The aim is clearer thinking, steadier emotion, and more reliable coping in everyday life.

Sessions are offered in English and Latoya accepts international clients. She uses text, email, or video according to client preference, and works through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule with her according to availability.

How her methods translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful space where a person can talk through what matters most. It helps people who need to feel heard before they can make changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day coping, which is useful for stress, anger, and mood instability. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps name painful emotions and work through them so relationships and personal wellbeing feel more stable.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Latoya collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust the plan as needs change, so therapy evolves with the client.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life. Video lets people see facial cues and practice interpersonal skills in real time. Text and email can be used for brief check-ins, notes between sessions, or when shorter written reflections work better. Confirm the current session options before booking so arrangements match your schedule and communication style.
