Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Lilburn, GA

I’m LaToya T. Newman, MS, LMFT, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with master’s degrees in both Marriage and Family Therapy and Criminal Justice Sciences. My background allows me to look beyond symptoms alone and consider the relational, environmental, and systemic experiences that shape how we see ourselves, connect with others, and respond to life’s challenges.

I work with adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, and emotional overwhelm. I particularly enjoy supporting individuals and couples who are ready to better understand themselves, explore relational patterns, strengthen communication, and heal from experiences that continue to impact how they show up in relationships and daily life.

My work is attachment-based, trauma-informed, and relational. I pay attention not only to what is happening on the surface, but also to the deeper emotional experiences, family dynamics, and life experiences influencing your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I am especially mindful of cultural experiences, family systems, and the impact of past environments on emotional safety and connection.

Clients often describe me as warm, direct, insightful, and easy to talk to. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment while also gently challenging patterns that may no longer be serving you. I believe healing and growth happen when we better understand ourselves, feel emotionally safe, and begin addressing things at the root.

If you've had trauma and it seems to hold you back, on top of poor copings skills and you feel a bit lost; you found me. I've listened to my clients and now together we can get to the heart of issues.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have worked for over twenty-five years with adolescent, adult, and senior adult clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, grief, and burnout.

I have a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. I assist clients to be empowered and learn different coping mechanisms as needed. I create a warm and safe environment for people to discuss their needs.

Hi, I am a licensed psychotherapist with the primary focus of treating trauma and grief using science and holistic embodied approaches. Personally, I am also a trauma survivor, mother, and wife with a blended family. My background and professional education help to shape how I approach therapy using a realistic and person-centered lens.
