About Latrice

Latrice Scott is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who brings 13 years of clinical experience to her practice in Florida.

Background and approach

She holds two master’s degrees in Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling from Webster University, awarded in 2012, and combines training from both school and clinical settings to support clients facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, addiction, and adjustment to life changes.

Her work has spanned residential programs, outpatient clinics, in-home services, and substance abuse treatment, giving her a wide perspective on how different environments shape healing. Latrice favors a person-centered stance that tailors interventions to each individual’s current needs, while drawing on established methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

She aims to help clients gain clarity about personal challenges and develop practical skills for coping and growth. Clients can expect a collaborative approach that respects where they are in the change process and focuses on achievable steps toward improved functioning and well-being.

Latrice welcomes people who are ready to explore change and work toward more stable, adaptive patterns in daily life.

Approaches for Change and How They Work Online

CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more adaptive patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties by teaching concrete skills and exercises to practice between sessions. DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness; it can be helpful for managing intense emotions, anger, and relationship challenges by offering structured skills training and coping strategies. Motivational Interviewing supports clients who feel uncertain about change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening motivation to pursue healthier choices, which is particularly useful in addiction and behavior change work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. Together they will adapt techniques and goals over time so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Latrice offers flexible access through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to connect from another location. These formats allow for ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and continued momentum toward change while accommodating different communication styles and needs.
