LCSW, 10 years of experience
Have you been thinking about starting therapy, but life stressors always seem to be a priority? Now it's time to focus on yourself! Latara joins our platform bringing her experience in working with adults, children and couples with varying mental health concerns and marital issues. Latara achieved both her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and her Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Central Florida in Orlando, FL.
Usually after sessions, I will give therapeutic homework on the topics that we have discussed in our session. This homework is designed to help build upon tools learned during previous sessions and assist with providing more insight needed to develop healthy coping skills.
Latara has studied and worked in the field of mental health for more than a decade. Latara developed her skills of working with various populations primarily through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Solutions Focused Therapy (SFT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). Latara is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, in the State of Florida.
I love reading books and watching different TED Talks regarding mental health, including those on depression, anxiety, and self-care. I take many CEUs on coping with depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. I am interested most in couples/family therapy as navigating a healthy relationship dynamic is usually the goal for most of my clients.
