About Latoya

Latoya LaGuerre is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Georgia who blends cognitive behavioral tools with client-centered and trauma-informed perspectives.

Background and approach

She draws on three years of professional experience to help people navigate family conflicts, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and related concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. Her approach emphasizes practical strategies alongside empathetic listening to support change and resilience.

LaGuerre cultivates an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can explore difficult thoughts and emotions. She also pays attention to issues such as self-esteem, anger, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and multicultural challenges including prejudice and discrimination.

Whether addressing adoption and foster care dynamics, caregiver stress, or questions about identity and self-love, she aims to partner with clients to set realistic goals and identify steps forward. Clients who choose to work with LaGuerre will find someone who values collaboration and encourages the courage it takes to begin therapy.

Her clinical training as an LCSW and CSW grounds her interventions while keeping the client experience central to the process.

Approaches and Online Care That Fit Your Needs

Latoya LaGuerre integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-focused approaches to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and reducing the impact of traumatic experiences while building skills to cope with triggers and difficult memories.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to review goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting methods over time so the treatment plan reflects what is most helpful for that individual.

Online therapy with LaGuerre is offered through a variety of formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for scheduling and allow clients to access care from home or other convenient locations, making it easier to maintain continuity of support while balancing daily responsibilities.
