About LaTonya
LaTonya Mangum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, depression, and relationship concerns. Her manner is respectful and compassionate, and she focuses on clear, practical steps clients can use day to day.
She takes time to listen and tailor conversations to each person’s situation. Sessions are collaborative - she asks questions, reflects what she hears, and offers tools that fit the client’s life.
Background and approach
The goal is to build skills that make everyday challenges easier to manage. LaTonya draws from several well-known approaches, including cognitive behavioral methods for changing unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, and attachment-informed work to understand relationship patterns. She also uses emotion regulation strategies when strong feelings like anger or shame get in the way.
Over her 11 years of experience she has helped people navigate family of origin issues, communication problems, abandonment and attachment concerns, codependency, infidelity, and the aftermath of divorce or separation. She also supports people dealing with isolation, guilt, impulsivity, jealousy, and feelings of emptiness. Her sessions aim to be straightforward and paced to each person’s needs.
She emphasizes practical tools, clearer communication, and small behavior changes that add up. LaTonya encourages clients to take gradual steps toward more satisfying relationships and a steadier sense of self.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
LaTonya uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she uses to clarify personal values and help people take committed steps toward a meaningful life despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy helps uncover how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, which can be useful for resolving recurring conflicts and trust issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust techniques over time so they match what actually helps in daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face when bandwidth and schedules allow, while phone sessions can fit a shorter break at work or require less data. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, homework support, and ongoing reflection between longer sessions.
