Hi, I'm Lathosha, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience in social work, including 25 years as a psychotherapist. I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and healing. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of supporting youth, adults, and families through various life challenges. My skills, knowledge, and personal experiences help me guide clients through complex situations and find balance. I specialize in helping teenagers and adults overcome struggles with depression, anxiety, anger, family conflict, relationship issues, and self-esteem.

Maybe you can't quite name what's wrong. Things feel off, the worry won't settle, or a low mood has overstayed its welcome, and you haven't put a label on any of it. That's a perfectly good place to begin. I work with teens (16 and up), adults, and couples who sense something needs to change and are ready to look at it honestly. You'll find me direct and warm, willing to ask the questions that actually matter, and not afraid to bring some humor into the room, because the work doesn't have to feel heavy every single minute.

For more than 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they work toward healing, growth, and change. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor, and Substance Abuse Professional, I bring both deep clinical knowledge and a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to therapy.

I specialize in helping clients navigate life’s most personal challenges—including relationship and intimacy concerns, life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, and mental health struggles. I also provide substance abuse treatment, DOT/SAP evaluations, and recovery support using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Reality Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, the Duluth Model, and the Matrix Model.

I have a special commitment to serving Black communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, people living with HIV, re-entry populations, sex workers, and youth facing challenges. I understand how personal, cultural, and systemic factors shape each person’s story, and I create a safe, affirming space where clients feel truly seen and heard.

In our sessions, you can expect a respectful, judgment-free environment where your voice matters. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—we’ll set goals together, explore what’s holding you back, and develop practical strategies you can use in daily life a more fulfilling life. Whether you’re seeking support for a specific issue or simply want to invest in your personal growth, I’m here to help you take that next step.
