About Latoya

Latoya Love is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri who centers therapy on respectful, strengths-based care.

Background and approach

With an M.A. in Counseling and more than a decade as a licensed clinician, she blends solution-focused strategies with trauma-informed work to help people manage depression, anxiety, stress, and the lasting effects of abuse. Her style emphasizes practical steps and compassionate listening to support clients moving toward clearer goals and healthier day-to-day routines.

She draws on Internal Family Systems ideas alongside trauma-focused techniques to address issues such as self-esteem, grief, compassion fatigue, and challenges related to adoption, immigration, or multicultural stressors. Latoya also works with concerns like ADHD, parenting struggles, anger, chronic illness or pain, and body image, applying approaches that honor each person’s lived experience and strengths.

Therapy reflects a holistic outlook that values self-care and community contexts, and she frames the work as a collaborative process aimed at increasing resilience and purpose. Latoya is a wife and mother who brings lived perspective to her clinical work and seeks to normalize conversations around mental health in communities of color.

Her practice uses multiple online session formats to meet clients where they are and to offer flexible paths toward healing and growth.

Practical approaches for online healing and growth

Latoya uses Internal Family Systems to explore the different parts of a person’s inner life, helping people notice and work with protective or wounded parts rather than getting stuck in self-criticism. This approach can be useful for trauma-related material, self-esteem struggles, and patterns that keep returning.

She also integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques, offering empathic, nonjudgmental listening while focusing on strengths and concrete steps toward change. These methods are aimed at immediate problems like stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, and day-to-day coping, while keeping the client’s goals central to the work.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy itself, and the therapist collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide whether trauma-focused work, parts- work, or brief solution-oriented strategies make the best path forward.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats allow clients to engage from home or other convenient locations, schedule sessions around busy lives, and use different communication styles as progress and comfort evolve.
