Latricia Freeman, LCSW

Latricia Freeman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with 12 years of experience in clinical care. She works with people encountering stress and anxiety, relationship and parenting challenges, anger management, and a range of mental health and behavioral concerns. Latricia approaches therapy with the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and that existing strengths can be used to address what feels overwhelming now. She emphasizes collaboration and respectful listening, helping clients identify practical steps and internal resources that support change.

Latricia recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and she aims to create a supportive environment where progress is built one step at a time. She offers steady guidance as clients explore goals, make decisions, and develop skills to cope with life’s demands. For those ready to start, Latricia affirms the effort it takes to reach out and supports clients through the early stages of the therapeutic process.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Latricia integrates client-centered therapy into her online work, focusing on empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and respected as they explore goals and challenges. This approach helps people who want a supportive environment to process emotions and strengthen personal insight.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and skills-oriented, often helping with anxiety, low mood, and stress by teaching strategies that can be applied between sessions.

Motivational Interviewing is another tool she may use to help clients resolve ambivalence and build motivation for change. This approach is useful when someone is weighing different choices or seeking to make lasting adjustments in habits or relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Latricia works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers practical benefits for that collaboration - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make scheduling more flexible and allow clients to engage in therapy from locations that work for them. These options can increase access to regular support while maintaining the same professional care provided by licensed professionals and therapists.
