About LaToshia
LaToshia Spearing is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with 21 years in the mental health field. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or major life changes. Her approach is practical and focused on small, clear steps that people can use between sessions.
She brings long experience in independent practice and earlier work across mental health settings. That background informs how she tailors sessions to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She listens first and then works with clients to set manageable goals. In sessions she draws on client-centered methods to follow a person’s priorities. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thought patterns that raise stress.
Dialectical behavior ideas and mindfulness practices are added when stronger emotion regulation skills are needed. Her work often addresses family and relationship tensions, parenting stress, grief, and trauma or abuse history. She also supports people dealing with anger, career strain, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and issues related to identity and intimacy.
Conversations cover how daily habits, communication, and coping skills affect feeling better. LaToshia asks straightforward questions and offers tools that are easy to try. She encourages regular check-ins on progress and adjusts plans when something isn’t working.
The focus is on steady, practical change that fits a person’s life.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
LaToshia uses client-centered methods that focus on the person’s goals and priorities. That means sessions begin with what matters most to the client and progress at a comfortable pace. This style works well online because conversations can be tailored to current challenges and life demands.She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT tasks are easy to assign between online sessions and can fit into daily routines. Dialectical behavior therapy ideas are offered when someone needs stronger skills for handling intense emotions and improving relationships. DBT-style strategies can include short skill practices and check-ins between appointments.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with the client about goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what helps. Together they decide which methods and session formats match the person’s needs and rhythm.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical access. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is low or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter updates, skill practice, or fast questions between appointments. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life while keeping therapeutic work steady and consistent.
