Latrice Scott, LMHC, LPC

Latrice Scott is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than 13 years in the counseling field. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addiction concerns, grief, and the strain of major life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma, sleeping problems, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, career questions, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and LGBT-related issues.

She earned two master’s degrees in Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling from Webster University in 2012. Early in her career she worked in residential and outpatient settings, provided in-home visits, and supported people in substance-abuse treatment programs. That breadth of experience shapes a practical, hands-on approach.

Latrice favors a person-centered way of working. She aims to meet each person where they are and build on their strengths. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical skills, and steps people can try between meetings.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used to teach coping skills for strong emotions. Solution-Focused methods help set short-term goals and notice small wins.

Latrice approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She works with people to clarify priorities and try strategies that fit their life. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability.

She practices in Florida as an LMHC and holds a Georgia Licensed Professional Counselor credential. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online sessions using CBT often involve setting concrete homework, trying small experiments, and tracking progress between meetings. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, addictions, and sleep issues.

DBT teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. In teletherapy, DBT-style skills practice can include step-by-step coaching, role-play, and guided breathing or grounding exercises tailored to the moment.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they choose techniques and adjust them over time so sessions feel useful and manageable.

Because the original profile does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can guide how to structure sessions so therapy fits into daily life while focusing on clear skills and goals.
