About Latonia

Licensed Professional Counselor with Mental Health Service Provider designation in Tennessee and eight years of experience, Dr. Latonia Lewis helps adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and major life changes. She works with people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who they have become. Sessions address both emotional symptoms and practical day-to-day struggles.

Dr. Lewis uses a trauma-informed, person-centered approach. She combines cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies to identify unhelpful patterns and build coping skills. She will also include faith or spirituality in sessions when clients request it.

Her style is interactive and direct. Conversations aim to clarify goals and create small, practical steps that fit into daily life. Expect a mix of reflection, skill practice, and planning rather than long lectures.

Dr. Lewis has helped people navigate relationship strain, substance use and recovery concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, and transitions such as divorce or separation. She also addresses feelings like guilt, shame, isolation, and struggles with self-worth and life purpose.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Dr. Lewis commonly draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing in her work. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Motivational interviewing uses short, guided conversations to clarify values and strengthen a person's own reasons for change, which can help with substance use, ambivalence, and habit change.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively with clients to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. Clients can expect to review what has helped in the past and try approaches that are adapted as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. The practical benefits of remote work include fitting sessions into a busy day, shorter check-ins when needed, and avoiding travel time. Different formats make it easier to keep consistent appointments and use new skills between sessions.
