About Latina
Latina Johnson is a Michigan-based licensed clinical social worker with six years of practice. She focuses on helping people manage addictions, sleep difficulties, mood concerns, and the stress of life changes.

She aims to build an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about hard feelings. Sessions center on what matters most to each person and move at a practical pace. Her approach favors listening first, then working together on clear steps that feel doable.
Latina draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the person’s perspective central. She also blends techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy when helpful. Those methods are used to address patterns in thinking, relationship worries, and coping habits.
Common concerns she helps with include anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and substance use challenges. She also supports people facing abandonment issues, family conflicts, caregiver strain, and feelings of isolation or shame.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, practical tools, and gentle encouragement to try new ways of handling problems. Latina invites people to take the next step when they feel ready and to set goals that match their life and pace.
How her approaches guide online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting so clients feel heard. This approach helps when someone needs a trusting space to sort through feelings and make choices that fit their life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and helps people try different actions to change outcomes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep trouble, and coping with stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how relationships shape reactions and comfort, and it can be useful for worries about abandonment, parenthood, or close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense for their goals and preferences. That means adjusting techniques over time and checking in about what is helping.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about your daily schedule and goals so sessions can be arranged to match your life.
