LaToya Nesbeth
I’m a dual Board Certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a strong foundation in whole-person, evidence-based care. My clinical background spans child, adolescent, adult, and geriatric populations, with experience across acute care, primary care, oncology, hospice, and other community health settings. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their care. I provide evaluation and treatment for conditions such as Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar/Mood Disorders, PTSD, Panic Disorder, Insomnia, and Adult ADHD. Grief and loss counseling is also a great passion of mine.
First session
In our first session, you can expect a calm, welcoming conversation focused on getting to know you, and not just your symptoms, but your goals, history, and what’s been weighing on you. By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of what’s going on and a collaborative plan for next steps, with plenty of space for your questions along the way.
Strengths
I listen carefully, explore what matters most to you, and move at a pace that feels safe and manageable. I combine thoughtful medication management with supportive therapeutic conversations, always explaining options and making decisions together so you feel informed and empowered.
Ideal clients
My practice is designed for high-achieving, hard-working people who spend so much of their lives caring for others that they often overlook their own mental well-being. Whether you're balancing a demanding career, raising children, maintaining relationships, caring for aging parents, or trying to excel in every role you hold, the constant pressure can take a toll. Stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, insomnia, and emotional exhaustion often build gradually, leaving you feeling overwhelmed despite appearing to have everything under control. My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can pause, be heard, and receive personalized, evidence-based care. Together, we'll work to help you regain balance, strengthen resilience, and improve your overall well-being so you can thrive, not just survive, in every aspect of your life.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help patients recognize how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. Together, we identify negative or unhelpful thought patterns that may contribute to anxiety, depression, stress, or feeling overwhelmed. I help patients challenge these patterns, develop healthier ways of thinking, and learn practical coping skills they can use in everyday life.
Motivational Interviewing
I use Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help patients explore their goals, identify barriers to change, and strengthen their confidence in making healthy decisions. Rather than telling patients what they should do, I use open conversations to help them discover their own reasons for change and build on their personal strengths.
Trauma-Informed Care
I use trauma-informed care by recognizing that past experiences can have a lasting impact on a person's mental and emotional well-being. I strive to create a safe, respectful, and supportive environment where patients feel heard, understood, and never judged. Treatment is guided by each patient's comfort level, and I work collaboratively to build trust, promote healing, and develop healthy coping strategies while avoiding approaches that may unintentionally cause further distress.
Grief Therapy
I use grief counseling to support patients as they cope with the emotional impact of losing a loved one or experiencing other significant life changes. I provide a safe and compassionate space where patients can express their thoughts and feelings at their own pace without judgment. Together, we work to understand the grieving process, develop healthy coping strategies, and find ways to adjust to life while honoring the meaning of their loss. My goal is to help patients heal, build resilience, and move forward with hope while recognizing that grief is a personal journey with no set timeline.
