Latisha Sterling, LMHC, LPC

Latisha Sterling is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with five years of clinical experience. She sees adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship and parenting strain, and people managing life changes or mood disorders.

She trained with a bachelor’s in psychology and a master’s in mental health counseling. In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. Latisha also draws on skills from dialectical-based approaches to address strong emotions and impulsivity.

Her approach is interactive and practical. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, learning small behavior changes, and setting clear goals. When trauma is part of the picture she uses trauma-focused methods to address memories and reactions step by step.

Latisha has experience with adoption and foster care issues, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, communication problems, domestic violence, and self-harm concerns. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar disorder, personality and mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress.

People who meet with her can expect straightforward work on coping skills, communication, and managing anger and impulsivity. She asks about what matters most to each person and uses that to shape practical next steps.
