Latoya LaGuerre, LCSW, CSW - Therapist in Georgia

About Latoya

Latoya LaGuerre is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on supporting people through family and parenting challenges. She uses straightforward talk and active listening to help clients sort through feelings and find practical next steps. Her style aims to make difficult conversations easier to start.

Latoya works from Georgia and speaks English. With three years of professional experience, she has helped people dealing with family conflict, trauma and abuse, and parenting struggles.

Background and approach

Sessions often center on understanding what is happening at home, building coping tools, and improving communication. She pulls from cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and from mindfulness practices to reduce stress in the moment. Latoya also uses client-centered methods that keep the conversation focused on each person’s goals and values.

For people processing painful events, she incorporates trauma-focused approaches to address safety and healing. Her work includes attention to issues like anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, self-esteem, and ADHD. She addresses related concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, multicultural issues, and prejudice and discrimination.

Latoya pays particular attention to women’s issues, young adult concerns, and LGBTQ matters when they arise in sessions. In practice she aims to create a nonjudgmental space where clients can speak openly and try new coping strategies. The initial step is simply reaching out and naming the problem.

From there she helps map a plan that fits each person’s situation and pace.

Practical approaches for online family and parenting support

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s goals in the lead. The therapist listens and follows the client’s priorities, helping families and parents name what matters most and decide on small, doable steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete tools to change them, which helps with anxiety, depression, and anger.

Finding the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each client to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can blend styles over time so the plan evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit care into busy family schedules and to revisit helpful tools between sessions. For many people, remote sessions reduce travel time and let conversations happen from wherever they feel most comfortable.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
