About Latonia
Dr. Latonia Lewis is a Licensed Professional Counselor with Mental Health Service Provider designation in Tennessee and has eight years of clinical experience. She helps adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life changes. She also addresses caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, substance use and recovery, and questions about life purpose.
She uses a person-centered, trauma-informed perspective that keeps the client's needs central. Sessions focus on talking through current struggles, recognizing patterns that may keep someone stuck, and learning practical coping skills. She mixes cognitive behavioral ideas, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies as needed.
Dr. Lewis aims for an interactive and honest style. She invites people to discuss difficult feelings and thoughts without judgment. When clients want it, she can incorporate faith or spirituality into sessions.
Her work often centers on measurable steps rather than broad promises. Together with the client she identifies goals and breaks them into manageable actions. This approach is meant to help people make concrete changes after a job shift, a relationship ending, health changes, or other major life events.
She recognizes that someone can look capable on the outside and still feel uncertain inside. Her sessions emphasize clear communication, realistic strategies for stress and mood, and support during transitions. The focus is on helping adults find practical ways forward.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Dr. Lewis commonly draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. These techniques are often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress by breaking problems into specific thoughts and actions to work on.She also uses motivational interviewing to support people who are making changes, such as reducing substance use or shifting routines. This approach focuses on identifying personal reasons to change and building small, achievable steps. Solution-focused strategies are used to set short-term goals and test practical actions between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current situation. That process is collaborative and may change as goals evolve.
