About Latasha

Latasha Shannon is a licensed clinical social worker with 19 years of experience helping people manage difficult emotions and life changes. She practices in Michigan and draws on a mix of practical approaches to support recovery and growth. Sessions are focused on real problems and clear steps clients can try between meetings.

Her work often centers on mood and anxiety concerns, addiction, trauma, grief, and relationship stress. She also supports people facing career strain, caregiving challenges, and issues with self-esteem or anger.

Background and approach

Latasha pays close attention to how personal history and current demands interact. In session she uses Client-Centered methods to listen deeply and build trust. She combines that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills for managing strong emotions.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when relationship-related feelings are central. Latasha keeps the pace practical. She helps clients set short-term goals and teaches skills they can practice between sessions.

Meetings often include skill practice, reflection on patterns, and planning for everyday challenges. Her approach is respectful and person-focused. People who want direct strategies and a collaborative partner for change tend to find her style useful.

Latasha works to help each person feel more capable in daily life.

Online support

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions shape relationships and personal patterns; it helps people name and work with core feelings that affect connection and trust. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and building a strong working relationship, giving clients space to be heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches specific skills to change behavior and mood, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. This is a joint effort that can shift over time as priorities change.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video works well for in-depth conversations and skill work that benefits from visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good alternative when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging offer flexibility for quick reflections, skill practice, or updates between sessions.
