About Latanya
Latanya Rochon Burley is a California-based licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 13 years of professional experience. She helps people who are coping with stress and anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem. She aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people can take the first steps toward change.
Her approach is practical and individualized. Sessions focus on identifying what feels most urgent and building small, manageable skills to reduce distress.
Background and approach
Conversations are direct but warm, and plans are adjusted as progress is made. Latanya emphasizes understanding how past hurts shape present behavior, such as attachment wounds, abandonment fears, and patterns of impulsivity. She also addresses guilt, shame, and issues that often affect women’s emotional health.
Therapy includes talking through problems and practicing new ways to respond to stressful situations. Over time she helps clients work on clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and a stronger sense of self-love and purpose. For people dealing with social anxiety, mood disorders, or post-traumatic stress, the focus is on steady steps that build confidence and reduce avoidance.
Latanya supports each person in setting realistic goals and tracking small wins. Her style is client-centered and collaborative. She works with each person to tailor a plan that fits their life.
When needed, she adjusts pace and methods so therapy stays useful and relevant.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Latanya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical coping skills and processing past hurts. One common approach she uses involves building concrete coping strategies for anxiety and stress, such as breath work, activity planning, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations; these techniques help reduce avoidance and increase daily functioning. Another common focus is trauma-informed work that helps people make sense of painful events and learn new ways to respond to triggers, which can reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with each person to identify goals, test methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients and therapist check in regularly to see what’s working and change course when needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility that fits busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a quieter voice check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins, written reflections, or support between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, or travel commitments.
