About Laticia

Laticia Georgie is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of counseling experience in Illinois. She takes a strengths-based, client-centered approach and meets people where they are. Laticia treats concerns like depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and substance use with practical, respectful care.

She emphasizes hope and the value of each person as they start the work of change. In sessions she listens first and then helps clients identify clear steps forward.

Background and approach

Her work often focuses on coping skills, communication, and managing stress. Laticia uses evidence-based techniques when they fit the situation, and she explains them in plain language so clients can use tools between meetings. Her background includes a variety of clinical settings over a decade of practice.

That range helps her adapt approaches to different needs and life stages. Laticia draws on both cognitive behavioral methods and emotion-focused work to address patterns that keep people stuck. She also incorporates mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support behavior change and emotional regulation.

These methods are used to build small, doable habits that make daily life easier. The goal is steady progress rather than sudden fixes. People who reach out will find a respectful, calm presence and a focus on realistic next steps.

Laticia encourages questions and partnership in planning care. Starting therapy is framed as an important first step toward feeling better and finding practical ways to cope.

Therapeutic approaches for online family and parenting concerns

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and treating each person with respect. It helps people feel heard and makes space to set goals that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives simple tools to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress that gets in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences, try strategies, and adjust the plan as needed. That ongoing partnership helps pick methods that feel practical and doable for each person’s situation.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep progress going between meetings. Sessions can focus on communication skills, coping strategies, emotional regulation, and concrete steps parents or caregivers can use at home, all delivered in formats that match the client’s routine and comfort level.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
