Hello. I graduated from East Carolina University with a Master’s of Science in Counselor Education in 2013. I completed my undergraduate studies in Family and Community Services, with a split concentration in psychology and special education. I also have an Autism add-on certificate. I am a Nationally Certified Counselor and member of the NBCC. I have resided in North Carolina all my life and enjoy the beaches, mountains, and in between. I have been working in mental health since 2003 in a variety of settings, including mental health agencies, in-home services, school settings, private practice, and residential and group homes. I have worked with individuals, helping them overcome issues such as anxiety, depression, loss and grief, life transitions, past-trauma, substance abuse, negative habits, interpersonal relationship problems, family stressors, parental concerns, and executive functioning. As a professional counselor, I prefer to provide a trauma-informed eclectic and integrated approach to counseling services based on the needs of the individual. The theoretic background that I most often utilize is an Integrated Approach of Solution-Focused Therapy with an accommodative integration of additional theories, such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Reality Therapy. I like to assign out-of-therapy “homework” and encourage one to monitor progress towards goals. In therapy, we will likely identify stressors and triggers, apply positive coping skills and identify negative coping skills, address family patterns and life scripts or working models, and practice exercising mindfulness and building reflective capacity. I look forward to helping you achieve your happiness.

Hi! I'm LaTanya. I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in NC, SC, and VA. As a systemic therapist, I empathize with the struggles of individuals, couples, and families as they strive to strengthen their relationships with themselves and with those who matter most to them. I provide individual therapy for a diverse range of issues. Whether it's childhood or relational trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, or challenges in adjusting to life transitions, I am here to support you. I also work with couples struggling to connect in their relationships and marriages—couples who find themselves at odds more often than not, who feel they're always in conflict, and are unable to communicate without arguing. Those who feel disconnected in their marriage and want to increase their friendship, intimacy, fondness, and admiration for one another. I also support couples who feel stuck trying to move forward following an experience with infidelity or betrayal. I prioritize creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel free to be yourself, be present in your mind and body, and actively participate in your healing journey. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I am proud of you for getting started!
