About Latina
Latina Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Michigan with six years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, addictions, sleep problems, and stress. She also supports people facing parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and major life changes.
Her approach centers on emotions and relationships. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside attachment-based ideas to look at how feelings and connection shape patterns. She also draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and elements of dialectical behavior approaches when helpful.
In sessions she encourages clear, direct talk about thoughts and feelings. Conversations focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, learning practical skills, and trying small changes that fit everyday life. She pays attention to issues such as abandonment, isolation, jealousy, guilt, and shame when these show up for a person.
Latina will also address substance use concerns, hoarding, domestic violence history, and caregiver stress with practical steps and coping tools. She offers support around family problems, blended family tensions, fatherhood issues, and forgiveness work. Discussions may include strategies for sleep, motivation, and rebuilding self-esteem.
People who choose to work with her can expect a straightforward, emotionally informed style. She helps clients identify what matters, then practices ways to change patterns and manage symptoms in daily routines.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions and the interaction patterns they create. EFT can help when feeling stuck in repetitive emotional cycles or when attachment fears shape how someone responds to stress or relationships.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns influence behavior today. It helps people notice how connection needs and fears affect everyday choices and reactions.
Finding the best fit is a collaborative process. Latina will work with each person to decide which approaches to emphasize based on their goals, history, and what feels most useful. That choice can be revisited as work progresses.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let conversations continue when life changes make in-person visits harder. If you have questions about session length or how sessions are scheduled, confirm those details when arranging the first appointment.
