It is important to have a safe space to express your true feelings and process your experiences in life. Therapy is a perfect space to do that without judgment and at your own pace. There are many different approaches to therapy for each client, and one size does not fit all. LaToya likes to use a client-centered approach as she believes in giving the client the agency to feel in control of their therapeutic experience. LaToya uses various approaches such as CBT and mindfulness, to create an environment and experience that is individualized and beneficial to the client’s goals and expectations.
LaToya has a colorful background working in an intensive outpatient facility for substance abuse, within the foster care system, with families, and within the Deaf/Hard of Hearing community. She has learned numerous skills in these fields that have allowed her to bring a flexible and open mindset to her practice.
LaToya graduated from Gallaudet University with a Master’s degree in Social Work. She is currently licensed in Maryland and DC.
