About Latia
Latia Maxwell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida and an LICSW licensed in Alabama with 16 years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and those managing life changes. Sessions are practical and focused on everyday problems rather than clinical jargon.
Her approach combines evidence-based methods and straightforward conversation. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that matter to them. Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing shape the way she listens and helps people find their own reasons for change.
Latia often helps people who feel isolated, overwhelmed by caregiving, or who are facing chronic illness, aging concerns, or end-of-life decisions. She also addresses communication problems, blended family issues, body image, and feelings of emptiness. These are handled with clear goals and steps people can try between sessions.
In sessions she typically focuses on specific skills - managing strong emotions, building small routines, improving communication, and setting realistic goals. She will talk through what’s been tried already and propose simple experiments to test new ways of coping.
To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Cost varies by location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and finding direction during life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. It often involves short exercises and experiments to practice between sessions.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so the person sets the pace and topics of sessions. This approach supports building motivation and practical goals in a way that feels manageable.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, past attempts, and personal preferences to decide which methods to emphasize. Sessions can mix techniques as needed and adjust over time based on what works for the person.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work or caregiving schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. The therapist will help plan session length and frequency to match everyday responsibilities and clinical goals.
