About Latia
Latia Maxwell is a licensed social worker who focuses on practical, usable tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She brings 16 years of experience to sessions and aims to meet each person where they are. Latia works with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
She emphasizes straightforward conversation and clear steps forward. Clients can expect sessions where the therapist listens first and then helps shape a plan that fits daily life.
Background and approach
Latia adapts her approach to match what a person needs in the moment, whether that means learning coping skills, building motivation, or exploring sources of anger. She uses techniques that people can try between appointments. Her work addresses many practical concerns, including coping with life changes, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Latia also supports people facing end-of-life caregiving, blended family stress, and fatherhood-related challenges. Mood disorders and disruptions such as Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder are within her scope of focus. Latia draws on several therapeutic styles to create a flexible plan for each person.
She prefers clear goals and measurable steps so progress is easy to recognize. The overall aim is to help people feel more capable, calm, and able to handle daily demands. Sessions are offered in English and conducted online in formats that match a person’s schedule.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step will pair someone with the available therapist.

Using targeted approaches during online therapy
Latia commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports choosing actions that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest one or a blend of methods. That shared decision helps tailor sessions so the strategies fit daily life and feel useful between appointments.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can be used for quick updates, brief coaching, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, or travel.
