Her experience also covers young adult issues and self-esteem challenges.
She works with LGBT concerns and with parents who want practical strategies for family stress. LaTasha encourages straightforward conversation about goals and next steps. She helps people set small, reachable tasks and checks progress together.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions involve identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new ideas, and practicing behavior changes that reduce anxiety or depression symptoms.Motivational Interviewing helps people find the motivation to change. In virtual sessions it uses reflective listening and goal-setting to move someone from uncertainty to action, which can help with addictions, health changes, or parenting goals.
Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses reactions to traumatic events and teaches skills for managing distressing memories and responses. Online trauma work combines careful pacing with grounding and coping strategies that clients can use between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about current needs, past experiences, and what a person hopes to achieve. Together they track progress and adjust methods so the work stays relevant and manageable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for quick updates, check-ins, or when someone prefers written conversation. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family and work schedules.
