More about LaTravia

  • 29 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 20 years of counseling in various settings. I have worked with troubled teens and their parents, individuals, families and couples. Although, I have been counseling professionally since my undergrad in 1990, I started counseling from the kindergarten playground, always desiring to assist with finding solutions to life's woes. Some of the areas of concern that I have addressed include depression, HIV/AIDS, adolescent concerns, anger, anxiety, family conflict, loss, blended families and many other areas of concern that affect families.

My counseling style is very welcoming and interactive. I believe in empowering the client and not making them feel judged. I remind myself that when working with a client I may be the only person in their life capable of both hearing and holding their pain, I don't take that for granted.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

My therapist has gotten me through some really dark periods in my life. My husband’s cancer diagnosis, the empty nest syndrome, and other life situations. She has helped me to see how my child hood has shaped how I react to life situations. And that has been a blessing to me, because it has allowed me to change some things in my life that was unhealthy. I am now more aware when I revert back to negativity and then I have to work my way back peace. My Therapist is very caring, patient, and she makes me laugh at times. But most of all now I can examine my self and see life and situations from a healthy lens.

A true light! LaTravia seen me, listened to me and guided me through this portion of my healing journey with such love, kindness and grace! I was challenged, held accountable, given grace, and celebrated on my brightest day and most importantly during what I defined as my darkest hours! I was always being affirmed, encouraged and supported! Given reality checks when necessary and it was always done with a kind heart and understanding ear. Each session I was welcomed with open arms! I never felt judged! My boundaries , and spirituality were respected through and through. Every time we met it felt like I was on a FaceTime call with my Auntie giving me the game on life, mental, physical, emotion, and spiritual wellness! Of course I welcomed and wanted this type of relationship with my therapist so as she made me comfortable to set the tone of the relationship I wanted with her I believe it’s safe to say I made her comfortable to be open and free for us to both to have such a free flowing, authentic and organic connection! She’s adaptable, mindful, a great listener, and truly a divine guidance! Healing takes a community & LaTravia for me was my community and I hope she’ll become yours as too! Happy healing! :)
