01About LaTonya
LaTonya Hawkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 18 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She uses clear, straightforward talk to help clients set goals and move toward healthier ways of coping. LaTonya meets people where they are and works at a pace that feels manageable.
Her approach centers on listening first and then selecting practical steps to try. She draws from Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where a person’s priorities guide the work.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and replace it with more useful habits. LaTonya has worked in community settings, schools, faith-based organizations, and mental health agencies. That background means she has helped people navigate grief, trauma and abuse, relationship strains, parenting stress, caregiving burden, and challenges like ADHD and bipolar symptoms.
She also supports people dealing with addiction, anger, isolation, and issues around self-worth. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. Clients can expect conversations that include problem-solving, building coping skills, and small experiments to test new ways of handling situations.
She also uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy when people want targeted change or help deciding what to tackle first. LaTonya practices in Georgia and works in English. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging as ways to connect.
If someone is ready to begin, the usual next step is to sign up, complete a short questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns back, and helps identify personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different rhythms of life. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions are a good option when internet bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging offer brief, flexible contact and can help maintain momentum between longer sessions.
