About LaToshia

LaToshia Spearing is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina who works with adults seeking help for relationship strain, mood concerns, trauma, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings 21 years of experience in mental health and has spent over 15 years in independent practice helping people navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar challenges, ADHD, grief, and intimacy-related difficulties. Her work also addresses parenting, communication problems, anger, and a range of family-related issues including abandonment and blended family dynamics.

Her approach adapts to each person's needs, drawing on client-centered principles to create a respectful, collaborative environment while integrating evidence-informed strategies such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when useful. She also uses mindfulness-based techniques and motivational interviewing to support coping, behavior change, and emotional regulation.

LaToshia’s goal is to support clients who are motivated to improve their lives by offering practical skills, insight, and steady guidance. Clients who value a thoughtful, flexible clinician will find her focus on real-life problem solving and relationship repair aligns with many common concerns.

She welcomes people ready to take actionable steps toward healthier patterns and more satisfying connections.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options



LaToshia often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and mood symptoms. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. She also incorporates dialectical behavior therapy techniques when clients need tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness; DBT skills can be especially useful for intense emotions and relationship conflicts.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting strategies over time to find what fits best. That collaborative planning helps create personalized care rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with communication. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency in treatment, practice skills between appointments, and access help from home or while traveling, supporting steady progress toward clients' goals.
