About Latosha

Latosha Kessell is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, and relationship concerns. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.

Background and approach

Latosha emphasizes each person's strengths and helps clients build on what already works for them. She draws on a mix of therapies to match what a client needs.

Sessions may include skill building for managing strong emotions, tools for changing unhelpful thinking, and guided approaches for processing painful memories. The Gottman Method is part of her toolkit for improving communication and reducing conflict in close relationships.

Over eleven years of clinical work inform her style. She aims for clear goals and steady progress rather than long, vague treatment plans.

Clients can expect straightforward feedback and concrete strategies to try between sessions. Latosha works by collaborating with each client to set realistic steps.

She helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck and practices new ways of relating and coping. The focus is on what helps a person feel more capable and connected in daily life.

She holds LPC credentials and provides care from Texas. Sessions are offered in English and use a range of online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Latosha encourages people to take the first step toward change and offers support during that process.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Gottman Method focuses on improving how people talk and solve problems in close relationships, offering communication exercises and ways to reduce conflict. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward personal values and meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together decide which methods fit best. That collaborative process helps ensure the plan matches real-life needs and changes as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more convenient. Video calls work well for longer sessions and interactive exercises, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed, and chat or messaging suits shorter updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or health needs while still working with a licensed professional.
