About Latoria
Latoria Murphy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, and questions about life purpose.
Murphy uses practical conversation and evidence-informed methods to help people sort through what matters next. Sessions often look at patterns in relationships, ways to manage guilt or shame, and concrete steps for handling midlife shifts or financial stress. She draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques and emotion-focused work to address both thoughts and feelings.
Her practice takes a trauma-aware stance, which means she pays attention to how past hurts shape present reactions. She also integrates attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early bonds affect current relationships. Client-centered methods are used to keep the work focused on each person’s priorities and pace.
People who reach out can expect direct talk about communication skills, boundary setting, and strategies to reduce social anxiety or isolation. She supports parents and caregivers dealing with stress related to pregnancy, childbirth, or ongoing caregiving roles by addressing practical strain and emotional responses. Financial worries, control issues, and forgiveness work are also part of her caseload.
Sessions are offered in English and are conducted from Florida. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and values-guided action. It helps when someone is stuck deciding what matters most and wants practical steps to move toward those priorities. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It is useful for understanding communication problems, trust issues, and recurring conflicts in adult relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and how different methods could help. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them over time based on what feels useful.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the original profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also permit work that focuses on skills such as communication practice, emotion regulation exercises, and planning for life transitions without requiring in-person meetings.
