About LeToya
LeToya McClay is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 17 years of clinical experience. She practices from Mississippi and focuses on short-term work when appropriate, aiming to help people make progress in fewer sessions. LeToya uses clear, practical steps in sessions rather than lengthy plans that drag on.
Her background includes helping people with anxiety, depression, attention and impulsivity concerns, trauma and grief. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, and life transitions.
How LeToya works
LeToya pays attention to cultural factors and multiculturally informed care. LeToya draws on a mix of methods to match each person's needs. Her toolkit includes attachment-based ideas, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused strategies, narrative approaches, and mindfulness practices.
She focuses on what will move a person toward their goals in a practical way. Sessions aim to be collaborative. She listens for patterns coming from family of origin, attachment, or traumatic events, and then helps people try new ways of relating and coping.
Homework or short exercises are offered when they fit the goal. Therapy can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The format is chosen to suit each person's schedule and comfort.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling the first appointment.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions use conversation and simple exercises to identify those patterns and try new ways of relating that reduce anxiety and conflict.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot thinking and behavior patterns that maintain problems. In virtual sessions this looks like tracking thoughts, testing out new behaviors between sessions, and reviewing results together to build practical skills for mood and anxiety concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose which methods to try based on goals, needs, and preferences. Adjustments are made along the way if something is not helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging can fit tight schedules and offer written reflections between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
