“I wish I could have selected all of the therapy styles, La'Tonya is a perfect mix of warm and empowering yet challenging you through solution orientation. I have seen La'Tonya for 2 years and she has helped me through a wide variety of topics; childhood trauma, relationships, spirituality, entrepreneurship, I could go on.
If you have been in therapy for years or today you became curious about what it could offer you, La'Tonya will take care of you. She is the perfect mix of an older sister not passing judgement and a mentor guiding you to a solution without solving it for you.”

“From my first appointment to today, I have felt that La’Tonya was a great person. She has a very warm spirit about her that made me feel really comfortable in opening up and expressing myself. She is the first person to help direct a change in my use of language in describing situations. It is helpful in changing how I view things and empowering to help change my mindset. I always look forward to our sessions!”

Getting to know LaTonya Oats
Life can feel overwhelming, uncertain, and challenging, especially when we fall into old patterns that no longer serve us. However, despite these challenges, I know that you are resilient. You made the courageous choice to address your issues. I would love the opportunity to work with you, making the most of your innate strengths, as we work towards Improved functioning and resolution of what concerns you most.
I am proud to say that I have over 20 years experience working as a behavioral health therapist. I help adults recover from traumatic experiences by building a strong rapport, establishing trust, and using interventions to get results. I am passionate about skill-building and helping individuals feel empowered. I started my Master’s at Rollins College and completed it at University of Miami. I am a National Certified Counselor, and I have extensive training in trauma resolution and DBT interventions. I also use CBT, somatic, and brain-based interventions.
Reflecting, I feel that I have always been on a journey of helping individuals uncover the impact of trauma on their current life functioning. I am passionate about helping them achieve integration and healing. While trauma resolution is my specialty, I am adept at serving individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, life issues, relationship, and communication challenges. I look forward to meeting and getting to know you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Initially, I'm seeking to build a rapport with my client and get an understanding of issues bringing them into therapy. Of course, this will look a bit different with each client. You should expect more clarity with each session and or to have a new tool to practice- gaining insight and building skills as needed.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

After our first meeting I can say that she has a great ear and could really articulate what she was hearing from me in the way I needed it to be understood. We had a video call, she was prompt. I was reminded for the appointment up until the hour before the meeting. She took the assessment I filled out prior to my meeting and was able to tie it in very well with our meeting. Looking forward to meeting with her again.
