Hola! I’m Latasha

I believe healing begins when individuals feel heard, supported, and empowered. I work with children, families, and adults navigating trauma, stress, and life challenges, offering a supportive space grounded in empathy and respect.

My approach combines practical support with compassionate care. I help clients build resilience, strengthen coping skills, and move toward stability and personal growth at their own pace.
