Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Pasadena, TX

Hello, I am so glad you found my page today, that alone is a big step!

I am a seasoned Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, which means I can hold space for both parties in a session. I can remain calm and objective during times of high conflict and times of deep pain.

I work from the science of attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I am also educated in couples trauma, neurodivergent couples, executive and entrepreneurial couples, and infidelity repair.

I am a tenured psychotherapist who has been licensed for 19+ years, and I have experience in a variety of behavioral and mental health settings. I have been trained in many modalities of psychotherapy, and my passion is to see people heal by connecting them with their own strengths and natural abilities to achieve the goals they set for themselves.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes you are more than a diagnosis or a list of symptoms. Mental health challenges are part of your story, but they do not define who you are. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing, ask questions, and feel comfortable being yourself. My goal is for you to feel heard, respected, and hopeful throughout your mental health journey.

I am a licensed clinical social worker providing secure telehealth therapy in both English and Spanish. With over 20 years of experience walking alongside families and individuals during times of challenge. My background includes working in schools, hospitals, immigration support organizations and community based programs.

Sometimes you don’t need someone to tell you what’s wrong—you already know something isn’t working. You may be overwhelmed, exhausted from holding everything together, struggling to quiet your mind, or simply tired of feeling like you should be doing better than you are. Therapy can be a place to finally put some of that down.

I’m LaToscha Sherman, MS, LPC, and my style is warm, conversational, curious, and practical. You don’t have to show up with the perfect words or know exactly what you want to work on. We can figure that out together. I believe therapy should be a space where you don’t have to leave parts of yourself at the door. Your culture, family, faith, identity, responsibilities, and the expectations you’ve learned to carry all matter here.

I work with adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy working with people who are used to being the strong, capable, dependable one—the person everyone else counts on—but privately feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply tired. If you’ve gotten really good at showing up, achieving, adapting, or being what different spaces require of you, therapy can be a place where you don’t have to perform.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. We’ll spend time understanding not just what you’re experiencing, but why certain patterns keep showing up and what you can actually do differently. My goal isn’t for you to stay in therapy forever. I want you to understand yourself better, develop tools that work in your real life, and feel more confident navigating life outside of our sessions.
