About LaToshia
LaToshia Spearing is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 21 years of experience in mental health. She works with adults who are struggling with relationship strain, parenting pressures, mood concerns, anxiety, trauma and related issues. LaToshia writes plainly with practical aims: she helps people talk through conflicts, manage strong emotions, and find ways to cope with life changes.
She draws on approaches that focus on the client's experience and on practical strategies. In sessions she blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness practices. That means conversations that listen for what matters to the client, paired with steps to change thinking and behavior when those steps feel useful.
Her background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling from Webster University and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the College of Charleston. The LPC credential is shown as SC LPC. Across two decades of work she has supported people dealing with depression, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, grief, and the fallout of abuse and abandonment.
LaToshia also addresses a range of family-related concerns that show up for individuals. Those include blended family stress, parenting strains, communication problems, divorce and separation issues, fatherhood matters, and infidelity. She uses focused techniques for anger management, conflict resolution, and improving day-to-day coping.
People who choose her can expect straightforward conversation and actionable steps. Her practice aims to help adults reduce overwhelming feelings, improve interactions at home, and develop clearer plans for change.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
LaToshia commonly uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered methods focus on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client, which helps clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses small experiments and practical tasks to reduce distress.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills when intense emotions or relationship instability are present. DBT-style techniques teach grounding, emotion regulation, and clearer communication tools that can help with anger, grief, and relationship conflict.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative step. LaToshia will talk with each person about what feels useful, try techniques in session, and adjust plans based on what works for the client's goals and preferences.
Please confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them explicitly. Many people find remote sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow brief check-ins during breaks, or avoid travel time. If you prefer a shorter check-in or need less use of video, discuss those preferences when you schedule so the format can match everyday life.
