About LaToya

LaToya Stevenson, LCSW, approaches therapy through a Narrative lens that helps people reframe the stories they tell about their lives. She draws on 11 years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and identity concerns. Her style is direct and warm, focused on listening and helping clients notice patterns that shape their choices.

She uses practical tools from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings.

Background and approach

Sessions often include simple exercises and real-life steps to test new ways of coping. The work is goal-minded but flexible to fit each person’s pace. Attachment-based ideas shape how she thinks about relationship struggles and family stress.

That perspective helps people understand patterns formed in close relationships and try new interactions. Client-centered practices keep conversations grounded in what matters to the person sitting across from her. She has experience in emergency mental health care and community mental health settings.

That background informs her ability to support people during sudden life changes, crises, or when emotions feel overwhelming. She combines skills from social work and legal studies to consider practical as well as emotional needs. LaToya aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients feel seen and heard.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different rhythms and schedules. People choose her when they want clear next steps and a collaborative approach to change.

How Narrative and Practical Therapies Work Online

LaToya combines Narrative Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-based ideas to shape online work. Narrative Therapy helps people notice the stories that guide their choices and try new, preferred narratives. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches simple skills for accepting difficult feelings while taking action toward what matters. Attachment-based ideas help people understand patterns in close relationships and test different ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you will adjust techniques over time so the plan stays useful and practical for daily life.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or use written reflection when that feels most comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work from different locations.
