About Latina
Latina Johnson is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Michigan with six years of professional experience. She focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier when life becomes overwhelming. Her approach is warm and straightforward, and she aims to make the first steps in therapy feel manageable.
She helps people who struggle with addictions, sleep problems, mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, and anxiety. She also supports those facing parenting stress, compassion fatigue, low self-esteem, and big life transitions.
How Latina works
Additional concerns she addresses include grief over abandonment, blended family challenges, caregiver strain, and substance use issues. Latina uses approaches that emphasize relationships and present-day coping. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how close relationships shape feelings.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns of thinking and build new habits. She also incorporates skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense emotions. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, doable changes.
Conversations are nonjudgmental and paced to each person. She works with clients to create plans for sleep, stress management, and relapse prevention when needed. Her style is collaborative and concrete.
Clients can expect a mix of talking, problem solving, and skill practice. Latina encourages steady progress and practical tools that people can use between sessions.

Online support options
How relational approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how close relationships shape emotions and patterns. In online sessions this means talking through relationship history and current interactions to identify triggers and build healthier ways of relating. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online CBT often includes concrete homework, tracking thought patterns, and practicing small changes between sessions so progress continues outside the call.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can shift over time as progress is made and new concerns arise.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility. Video lets people work face-to-face when they want visual connection. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or reduce bandwidth needs. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, fast skill coaching, or support between longer appointments. These options help make regular work on sleep, stress, addiction recovery, and mood management easier to sustain.
