Greetings! My name is LaToya Stevenson and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked with individuals, families, and groups providing counseling for 8 years through community-based mental health and social service agencies. I possess both Bachelor and Masters degrees in Social Work and Certification in Child Welfare. I specialize in working with addiction, behavioral health, multicultural issues, family/relationships, esteem, and existential crises (sudden changes/alterations in lifestyle).
I am highly trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which I have utilized within individual, group, and family therapy. I, also, regularly utilize solution-focused therapy and motivational therapy in session. My goal as a therapist is to utilize my skill and expertise to guide and assist my clients in addressing their presenting problems to facilitate healing. I pride myself in creating a warm and inviting therapeutic environment centered on trust. I am here to work with you if you are ready to take the steps towards change. I look forward to working with you and being able to support and empower you in this journey!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Wonderful
LaToya has been very helpful to me in just a few sessions. Her advice, guidance and kind words and assistance in addressing my issue helped me think through my situation. LaToya is attentive, patience and compassion. I love that she listens and than offers her thoughts and suggestions which she than send them to me to read.
LaToya is a warm-hearted, and skilled professional who ensures that the client streamlines their life goals. I highly recommend her!
I feel like a big part of the apprehension of starting therapy is understanding that it might take a while to find the right therapist. However, I’m so grateful I was matched with Latoya. I’m super excited to start this journey with someone who is someone close enough to my demographic to understand what I’m talking about and get my references, while also being far enough to offer a new perspective and provide me with opportunities to think about situations differently. Thanks Latoya!!
LaToya goes out of her way to provide high-quality support. I truly appreciate her empathy, humor and caring. A very good fit for me! I'm glad I chose her as my LCSW!
LaToya has been amazing during a very difficult time in my life and has helped me rediscover myself as well as recognize destructive patterns so I don’t make the same mistakes again. I feel confident with the tools I have learned to set and maintain my boundaries in order to keep myself happy and healthy.
LaToya is very kind and compassionate and creates an environment where you feel comfortable opening up. My main issue with what I am going through is feeling like I cannot open up to anyone because I feel extremely judged so it was extremely important for me to get a counselor who I felt comfortable opening up to. I have definitely seen a vast improvement in my life since seeing her, I know that she will help me fully recover in due time.
LaToya is warm and friendly. She listens to what I want to discuss and has a great attention to detail. She is forever referencing things I mentioned the weeks before which brings such a lovely touch to our sessions and makes me feel heard. She’s great
LaToya is a very competent, intelligent, warm-hearted and sincere individual. I have very much appreciated her sessions. I look forward to some structured CBT for my specific issue in my next sessions!
LaToya has been amazing. Since our first visit I felt as though she understands exactly what I am going through and how to help pull out the best in me. She has been understanding and supportive, helpful with videos and worksheets to help me along the way. We have only had two sessions so far but we have covered so much ground and made great strides forward already. I can’t wait to see how far I can go with her assistance in my quest for sound mental health
So helpful and makes me feel like my issues are normal. She makes me feel normal !
