About LaTresa
LaTresa Hart is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience in social services. She focuses on practical strategies parents can use when stress, anxiety, grief, or parenting demands feel overwhelming. Her style is warm, direct, and interactive, and she aims to help people find clearer routines and calmer responses at home.
She uses evidence-informed methods to help parents manage mood and behavior challenges. Sessions emphasize concrete skills for handling anger, impulsivity, and relationship tensions.
Background and approach
Hart draws on tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to break problems into manageable steps and to teach ways to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Many people come for help with parenting strain, family conflict, adoption and foster care concerns, and issues tied to trauma or abuse.
She also works with people dealing with career stress, addiction struggles, low self-esteem, and life transitions like divorce or separation. Her background includes long experience with trauma, domestic violence, and family of origin problems. Hart blends practical coaching with psychotherapy methods.
She uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and solution-focused techniques to set achievable goals and small experiments between sessions. Sessions are tailored to the specific goals each person brings to therapy. People who choose her can expect a respectful, compassionate approach that centers their strengths.
She invites clients to try techniques in everyday life and to adjust plans based on what works. Her aim is steady progress toward clearer family routines and healthier interactions.

Approaches to change you can use online
LaTresa Hart uses practical methods that transfer well to remote sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It helps with anxiety, mood problems, and managing reactions in parenting moments. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and to respond rather than react during tense interactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hart collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and daily life. She mixes goal-setting, motivational interviewing to support readiness, and brief solution-focused steps so clients can try small changes between sessions and report back what worked.
The online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text let people check in between sessions, keep notes, and fit therapy into busy days. These options are intended to make therapy more flexible and easier to use alongside parenting duties and work schedules.
