Lateldrin Williams
Hello! I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in the state of Kentucky and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina. I specialize in treating people struggling with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I bring a comprehensive approach to my practice, seamlessly integrating evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and mindfulness. My goal is to empower individuals by providing tailored strategies to navigate challenges, foster resilience, and promote lasting positive change in their mental well-being. I graduated with my BA in Psychology from Western Kentucky University in 2012, followed by my MA in Professional Counseling from the University of the Cumberlands in 2016. I've worked in inpatient and outpatient settings with adults, children, families, and special populations such as those struggling with substance abuse and domestic violence.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first therapy session with me, you can expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where I create a safe space for open dialogue. We'll discuss the therapeutic process, confidentiality, and your goals for therapy. I'll inquire about your personal history, current challenges, and any symptoms you may be experiencing. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions, express concerns, and begin establishing a trusting and collaborative relationship with me. Together, we'll work towards creating a comfortable foundation for our therapeutic journey ahead.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strengths as a provider center on establishing a compassionate and non-judgmental environment, fostering a sense of understanding and support for clients. I remain committed to staying abreast of the latest therapeutic approaches, offering evidence-based interventions customized to each person's unique needs. Through a collaborative and empowering approach, I cultivate a strong therapeutic alliance that encourages clients to explore their strengths, navigate challenges, and achieve meaningful, lasting change.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I work closely with clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns, helping them recognize distorted thinking that contributes to their emotional distress. Through structured exercises and assignments, I empower individuals to develop coping strategies and problem-solving skills, fostering a sense of control over their mental well-being.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Let's collaborate and build essential skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Collaboratively, we identify and target maladaptive behaviors, working towards replacing them with healthier alternatives. With a strong emphasis on validation and acceptance, I create a supportive therapeutic environment that encourages clients to develop a better understanding of themselves, leading to improved emotional well-being and interpersonal relationships.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
In my mindfulness-based treatment approach, I integrate the principles of mindfulness to cultivate a heightened awareness of the present moment. Through guided mindfulness exercises and meditation practices, I help clients develop a non-judgmental and accepting stance towards their thoughts and emotions.
