    About LaTrena

    LaTrena Marshall is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan with eight years of practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career concerns, and life changes. Her style is warm and straightforward, with an emphasis on practical tools clients can use between sessions.

    She works in a manner that centers the client's own goals and choices. That means listening carefully, clarifying thoughts and feelings, and helping clients try small changes that build confidence. Motivational Interviewing is one of the approaches she uses to support people who want to make shifts in behavior or motivation.

    Marshall also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help people notice patterns in thinking and behavior and to practice different responses. She blends these approaches into short-term, goal-focused conversations when helpful. Solution-Focused techniques guide work on immediate goals and steps forward.

    Her background includes work in private practice and in school settings, and she has experience with youth development and teen issues. She also serves as an LPC supervisor, which involves mentoring other counselors.

    Sessions are offered in English and she practices in Michigan. The overall aim of her work is to support clients as they gain skills, try new habits, and move toward clearer goals.

  2. How her approaches translate to online work

    Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and build confidence to try new behaviors; it suits goals like improving motivation for parenting strategies, work changes, or managing health behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting people where they are so they can explore feelings and decide next steps at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood and offers practical exercises to try between sessions to reduce anxiety or low mood.

    Choosing a method is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked before, then recommend approaches to try together. Plans can be adjusted over time based on what feels most helpful.

    The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can make shorter check-ins possible when time is tight, or cut down travel time for appointments. Because available session formats are not specified here, confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled and delivered.
