About me
Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Michigan for over 15 years, and am also a Nationally Certified Counselor. I have worked with a diverse range of clients. My experience includes working with adults dealing with depression and anxiety, self-esteem and motivation issues, family concerns, relationship problems, and life changes such as financial difficulties, school/work adjustment, and medical concerns. My therapy style tends to be laidback, genuine, and nonjudgmental, with a touch of sense of humor when appropriate, of course. My goal as a therapist is to encourage you, help push you forward in a positive direction, and allow you to be yourself, talk about your thoughts and experiences as openly as you want, I'll let you know if I think it's way too offensive. If you only want therapy to vent your concerns and not necessarily get new ideas, I'll be here to listen. With your assistance, we will develop a treatment plan with your goals to help meet your needs. I work around what fits your needs and do offer suggestions that may help, and you can decide if they will work for you. It takes strength to decide you need some guidance to improve your life, and hopefully I can be the one to assist you. I am here to support you and I look forward to working with you!
My schedule is Monday 9am with the last session at 6:30pm, Tues and Thurs start at 8am, last session at 6:30pm. I am not available Wednesdays, Fridays or weekends.
I check messages throughout the day Monday-Friday and respond within 24 hours. If it is the weekend, I may respond by Monday as I may be tending to other responsibilities. I am available for video chat, phone/voice chat, or live chat messaging.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for LaTanya Emerson. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
LaTanya was an amazing therapist to me. She helped me through horrible health anxiety, family issues, and OCD-like intrusive thoughts. She has truly changed my life for the better and I highly recommend her<3
She’s a fantastic Therapist! Listens very well and gives tips to help work through my problems
I absolutely love doing my therapy sessions with LaTanya. She's attentive, kind, she understands my situation and gives small homework assignments to try. And most importantly, she doesn't judge, she listens. ❤️
LaTanya has been so helpful. We have only had a few sessions so far but by far I've had my best experience with her. She's truly genuine in her responses, not forceful and it truly feels like we are working together on practical solutions to my issues. She is really good at helping me identify those as well and that really helps me make sense of how I think and how we come up with those solutions. It's all very laid back at the same time. She's a pro!
Listens, easy to talk to!
Her down to earth energy made it easy for me to open up to her about my concerns, very sweet and genuine, look forward to continuing my work with her on bettering myself.
Thank you I’ve really grown from you!
LaTonya has been amazing. She’s integral in the growth and progress that I’ve made. I am extremely grateful for her work.
Amazing! Very helpful! Listens and also gives good advice
She is very helpful and gives me lots of new things to think about after every session.
I love her! I instantly felt like she understood me and the goals I had for my life. Very attentive and a great listener. Latanya is relatable, down-to-earth, wise, and easygoing. I’d recommend her to anyone.
Very laid back and makes you feel comfortable for your first session.
I've been with Latanya for about 3 months now and I have to say in such a short period of time to help me grow tremendously. She has pointed out things that I was unaware about myself and given me good advice and resourceful Avenues on ways to enhance my personal and professional life.
She's is amazing, understanding, and a great listener
Very nice, easy to talk to. I look forward to my sessions with her.
she's simply the best
LaTonya is an amazing therapist. She listens very well, always remembers details of my issues and gives great feedback.
She's wonderful. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their therapist.
Latanya is very good at what she does. Each time I have a session with her I am even more satisfied with my decision to seek therapy. It's just like talking to a girlfriend, only better. lol She is helpful, attentive, and she makes me feel that she really cares. 100 stars!
I have completed two sessions with LaTanya to date. Last week was good for me, I slept throughout the night and only had one anxious moment prior to a meeting. I used the techniques LaTanya recommended and the meeting went well.
She’s very nice and easy to talk to. Her approach while speaking is very calm it helps makes you feel comfortable and want to open up.
Very supportive, very interactive, having a very positive experience thus far. Sometimes I wonder if her analysis could be deeper but it's only been 3 weeks so it's too early to really tell but so far so good. She's great!
LaTanya is an excellent therapist. Her experience is evident and she is very insightful and easy to talk to.
