About Latonia
Dr. Latonia Jennings LCSW is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with three years of clinical practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, parenting, and related life changes. Her work addresses both everyday struggles and longer-term problems people bring to therapy.
Jennings uses practical, skills-based methods in sessions. She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered and mindfulness techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new responses. She also draws on motivational interviewing and narrative ideas to support motivation and reframe personal stories.
In sessions she explains approaches clearly and teaches concrete skills to use between meetings. She emphasizes learning tools that can be applied after therapy ends, not just feeling better in the moment. Sessions often include exercises for behavior change, thought tracking, and focused conversation about goals.
Her background includes work across child welfare, substance use, domestic violence, bereavement, and couples issues. That experience informs how she addresses family-related stress, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver strain, and challenges such as infidelity or separation.
People who come for help with career stress, codependency, control issues, or isolation will find focused strategies and step-by-step practices. She also supports those dealing with anger, addictions, fatherhood concerns, and forgiveness work. The approach is straightforward and centered on practical changes.
How her approaches translate to online work
CBT helps people track thoughts, test assumptions, and change small behaviors that maintain problems. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and pattern-based issues like codependency or relationship conflict.Client-centered work focuses on listening and letting the person set the pace. This approach supports people who need time to clarify goals, especially around parenting, caregiving stress, or life transitions.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. It pairs well with CBT for managing anger, cravings, or persistent worry.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose approaches based on each person's goals and day-to-day needs, and will explain options and make adjustments over time.
