About Latrice
Latrice Scott helps parents and families navigate common and serious struggles. She focuses on stress, anxiety, anger, depression, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, addiction concerns, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, relationship and family issues, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Latrice is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and also holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential.
She brings 13 years of counseling experience to sessions. She trained with two master’s degrees in Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling, both earned from Webster University in 2012.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in residential programs, outpatient clinics, in-home services, and substance abuse treatment. Over the years she has worked with children, teenagers, and families, which shapes how she supports parents and caregivers now. Her style is person-centered.
That means she pays attention to where each person is starting from and adapts the work to their needs. She blends practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy with solution-focused techniques to address specific problems and daily challenges.
In a typical session she helps people set clear goals, build coping skills, and practice new ways of responding to stress or conflict. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone needs support finding their own reasons to change. Latrice aims to guide families toward clearer thinking and workable steps.
She approaches change as a gradual process and works alongside clients to find realistic strategies that fit family life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
CBT helps people recognize unhelpful thoughts and change reactions. Online CBT sessions often include short skill-building exercises and practical homework to try between meetings. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage strong feelings and conflict. In teletherapy these skills can be practiced in session and reinforced with follow-up exercises and messaging. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and daily life. That means trying techniques and adjusting the plan together until it feels helpful. Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy families. Video calls let family members join from different locations, while phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into parenting schedules and to keep practicing new skills between meetings.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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
