About Latina
Latina Johnson is a licensed clinical social worker in Michigan with six years of experience. She focuses on practical support for people dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, addiction, and parenting pressures. Latina creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can name what’s hard and begin to make small changes.
She uses common-sense, goal-oriented work that fits daily life. Sessions often include talking through immediate worries, practicing skills to manage strong emotions, and trying small experiments between meetings.
Background and approach
Latina leans on approaches that help people spot unhelpful thinking and build steadier relationships with their feelings. Her background includes helping people cope with sleep problems, compassion fatigue, and the fallout of big life changes. She also supports those facing guilt, shame, isolation, or issues tied to substance use.
Clients come for a mix of short-term problem solving and longer-term work on patterns that keep causing pain. Latina emphasizes collaboration. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and offers practical tools tailored to each person’s pace.
Progress is framed as a series of small steps rather than instant fixes. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people both inside and outside the United States. She works with common online formats to make ongoing care more reachable for people with busy schedules or limited local options.
Evidence-informed approaches adapted for online work
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early relationships shape current needs and reactions, and it can be useful for worries rooted in abandonment, trust, or closeness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it often helps with anxiety, sleep troubles, and mood problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling intense emotions, managing stress, and improving stability in day-to-day life.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaborative stance means sessions can combine skill practice, reflective talk, and problem-solving tasks tailored to the person's needs.
Online therapy with Latina includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short updates or ongoing reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules.
