About Latoya

Latoya Love is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri who blends client-centered care with solution-focused and trauma-informed methods.

Background and approach

With an M.A. in Counseling from Webster University and a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Missouri - Kansas City, she brings 11 years of licensure experience and more than a decade working across diverse mental health settings. Her work emphasizes strengths, practical strategies, and healing from trauma, helping clients find clearer paths forward.

She is particularly attentive to issues such as trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, parenting concerns, anger, and ADHD. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, body image, chronic pain and illness, immigration concerns, multicultural issues, post-traumatic stress, and recovery from sexual assault and abuse.

Latoya approaches therapy holistically and centers the whole person rather than isolated symptoms. Known for advocating mental health awareness and normalizing care in the Black community, she aims to empower people to practice sustainable self-care and live with greater purpose.

Prospective clients who value collaborative, practical, and trauma-informed support may find her approach well suited to their needs.

Combining trauma-informed care and practical strategies online



Client-centered therapy places the client at the heart of the work, focusing on personal strengths, lived experience, and the therapeutic relationship to guide progress; this approach helps people feel heard and valued while exploring goals. Solution-focused therapy emphasizes concrete, achievable steps and future-oriented planning to build momentum and address immediate challenges, which is useful for stress, self-esteem, and practical life changes. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences, imparting tools for coping and reducing trauma-related symptoms so clients can reclaim daily functioning.

Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals and may combine elements from different methods to create a personalized plan that evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to access care from different locations within the therapist's service area. These options support continuity of care and let clients choose the format that feels most comfortable for sharing and growth.
