About Latina
Latina Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Michigan with six years of practice. She focuses on common life challenges such as addictions, sleep problems, low self-esteem, mood concerns, and stress. Her work also touches on parenting concerns and coping with major life changes.
Latina uses practical, talk-based sessions to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and attachment-informed ideas. Sessions are aimed at clear steps people can try between meetings rather than long lectures.
Clients bring issues like anxiety, depression, bipolar mood swings, grief over abandonment, problems in blended families, and caregiver stress. She also addresses substance and alcohol concerns, domestic violence effects, feelings of emptiness, hoarding, and isolation. Conversations look at patterns that keep problems going and small experiments to change them.
Her style is direct and steady. She listens for unhelpful thinking and then helps set specific goals and practices. Work often includes simple behavior changes, skills for emotion regulation, and strategies to shift relationships that cause pain.
Latina aims to make the process manageable for busy lives. She supports parents dealing with fatherhood issues and family conflict, and people carrying guilt, shame, or grief. Practical next steps and homework are common parts of her process to build momentum between sessions.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Latina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts, feelings, and behaviors into clear steps. CBT focuses on noticing thinking patterns and testing new responses, which often fits well into short weekly practice and homework.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships shape reactions. That approach helps when stress, abandonment, or blended family issues are part of the problem. Client-Centered Therapy means conversations stay focused on the person in front of her, with the therapist following the client’s goals and pace.
Deciding which method to use is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals and preferences and pick strategies together, adjusting the approach as needs change. Clients can expect concrete tasks and check-ins to measure progress.

Therapists and licensed professionals often use these practical advantages to keep therapy consistent with daily life.
