About Latonia

Dr. Latonia Jennings is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. She combines practical, person-focused care with clear teaching so people leave sessions with new skills. Her approach is collaborative and respectful of each person's knowledge about their own life.

Jennings draws on Client-Centered methods to listen and build rapport. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing also appear in her work to support awareness and strengthen motivation for change.

She has three years of clinical practice in the setting described here, and a longer history in social work across many fields. That broader background informs how she frames problems and suggests realistic next steps for coping and growth. Her experience connects to concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and addictions.

Jennings also focuses on areas like parenting stress, adoption and foster care matters, caregiver burnout, codependency, infidelity, and communication or control problems within relationships. She offers straightforward coaching-style guidance when people want concrete strategies for everyday challenges.

People meet her for help with major life changes, anger, career transitions, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She aims to help clients gain confidence and practical tools so they can handle future setbacks more effectively.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client to help them feel understood and to discover their own solutions. It is useful for relationship strain, grief, and low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot patterns of thinking that make problems worse and then practice small behavior changes to test new outcomes. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy trains simple awareness skills that reduce reactivity and help with stress and mood regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then work together to try methods that fit. Adjustments are made as needed so sessions stay focused on what helps most.

The practical benefit of online therapy is that it can fit into busy days more easily. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it simpler to have regular check-ins, schedule around work or parenting, and practice new skills in the flow of daily life.
