Latia Maxwell

Latia Maxwell is a licensed social worker with 16 years of experience. She offers a calm, respectful approach to people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, or depression. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps a person can use right away.

Her work is built around tailoring conversations and plans to each person's needs. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts, try new behaviors, and set clear values-based goals. Client-Centered Therapy shapes the way she listens, keeping the person’s concerns central.

Latia also helps with life transitions and related challenges like caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, body image, and feelings of isolation. She supports people dealing with abandonment, communication problems, and struggles around purpose or mood disorders. She will prioritize what matters most to the individual and adjust the focus over time.

Sessions aim to build skills for everyday life. That can mean working on motivation, practicing new ways to respond to anger, or breaking large problems into small steps. She encourages people to notice progress, even when it feels slow.

Latia holds LCSW and LICSW credentials and practices in Florida. Her style is straightforward and kind, and she invites people to take the first step and complete the onboarding process to begin scheduling sessions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It focuses on accepting difficult feelings while committing to actions that match personal goals, which can be useful for anger, anxiety, or life-change stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical strategies to test and change unhelpful patterns. That approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental listening stance that helps people feel heard and decide their own direction.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help assess needs, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process with the person’s goals guiding decisions.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow for shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. Because session formats were not specified in the provided biography, confirm current session options before booking to make sure they fit your schedule and preferences. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to practice skills, set goals, and support day-to-day coping without promising a specific outcome.
