About LaTrena
LaTrena Marshall is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, grief, relationship strain, depression, and self-esteem concerns. She practices in Michigan and brings eight years of clinical experience to her work. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical tools that parents and individuals can use right away.
In sessions she listens with warmth and directness. She helps clients clarify thoughts, name feelings, and notice behaviors that get in the way.
Background and approach
Her goal is to give straightforward coping skills and steps people can try between meetings. Marshall has worked in independent practice and in schools. She has experience with children, teens, and adults and has a solid background in adolescent and youth development.
She also serves as an LPC supervisor. LPC stands for Licensed Professional Counselor. Her methods include client-centered conversations that follow the client’s pace, and techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and habits.
She also draws from solution-focused work to set clear, achievable goals. Sessions emphasize practical progress over theory. She describes the therapeutic relationship as a joint effort.
Parents and individuals who want concrete strategies and steady support will find an approach grounded in empathy and accountability. The focus stays on what the person needs now and next steps they can try.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy centers each session on the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, follows the client’s pace, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is useful when someone needs space to sort feelings and set personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. CBT is practical and often helpful for stress, worry, and mood concerns.
Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, realistic steps toward a preferred future. Sessions set clear goals and track progress, which can help parents and busy people who want quick, doable strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss these methods with clients and choose or combine them based on the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what will be most useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options let people fit sessions into family schedules, handle urgent concerns between meetings, and keep momentum even when life is busy. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach coping skills, practice new habits, and track progress over time, making therapy more accessible for parents and individuals alike.
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.
Existential Therapy
Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
