About Latonia

Dr. Latonia Jennings is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. She brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and issues with self-esteem and addiction.

Her approach centers on listening to each person's story and building from their strengths. She uses Narrative Therapy alongside client-centered methods to help people reframe difficult experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness tools are added when they match a person's goals.

Background and approach

Jennings aims to make therapy feel useful and educational. Sessions involve clear goals, helpful skills, and straightforward discussion about what to try between meetings. The intent is that people leave with tools they can use later, not just temporary relief.

She has worked in social work roles across areas such as child welfare, substance abuse, domestic violence, bereavement, and criminal justice, and has clinical experience helping with grief, couples concerns, and life transitions. Her background informs how she addresses complex stressors like caregiving, adoption and foster care challenges, and problems with communication, control, and boundaries.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative process where their needs guide the techniques used. Dr. Jennings combines practical strategies, motivational interviewing when helpful, and mindfulness practices to support coping, recovery, and clearer decision making.

Online session options

How narrative and cognitive approaches work online

Dr. Jennings commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people name and reframe the stories that shape their feelings and choices. This approach focuses on separating a person from their problem and finding alternative, more helpful storylines that match their values and goals. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical experiments that change mood and behavior.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest one or a mix of methods to try. Adjustments are made based on what helps most, and progress is reviewed together so work stays focused and useful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or travel while still getting regular support.
