Dr. Latonia Lewis

Dr. Latonia Lewis is a Licensed Professional Counselor with Mental Health Service Provider designation in Tennessee. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and big life changes. Her work often includes support for women facing life transitions and struggles with self-worth.

She uses a warm, honest, and interactive style in sessions. Dr. Lewis aims to make each person feel heard and understood. She does not try to fix clients or give step-by-step instructions. Instead she helps people notice patterns, learn healthier ways to cope, and make choices that fit their goals.

Her approach is trauma-informed and person-centered. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies to meet individual needs. When helpful and requested, she will include faith and spirituality in the work.

People often come to her for issues such as caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, substance use and recovery, guilt, isolation, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Dr. Lewis offers practical steps and conversations aimed at steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Beginning therapy can feel hard. She works at a pace that respects each person's needs and priorities. If someone is ready to start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling that fits the client and therapist.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Dr. Lewis uses trauma-informed and person-centered care to help people feel understood and safe in therapy. Trauma-informed work focuses on recognizing how past hurts affect current feelings and reactions, and it helps people reclaim a sense of control and stability. Person-centered care emphasizes listening and meeting each person where they are, so sessions follow the client’s pace and priorities.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors and teach practical ways to shift unhelpful patterns, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Motivational interviewing helps people clarify their own goals and build motivation for changes like reducing substance use or improving communication.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust based on what works. This shared process helps find strategies that feel useful and realistic.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your routine and needs.
