About LeToya
LeToya McClay is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 17 years of experience. She lists work with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, and social anxiety and phobia among her areas of focus. LeToya says she currently emphasizes short-term counseling of about six to ten sessions for many clients.
LeToya draws from several approaches to match what each person needs. She uses elements of Narrative Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, play therapy, and other methods when appropriate. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on clear goals.
She spends much of the school year working as a registered play therapist, which informs how she shapes interventions and explains ideas simply. That background also influences how she works with adults who describe family, parenting, or blended-family stresses.
LeToya describes her role as helping people reach goals while offering non-judgmental support. She favors direct, time-limited plans when that fits the person’s needs, and she will switch approaches if something else seems more useful.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation about what is and isn't working in daily life. Sessions typically focus on practical steps, coping strategies, and small changes people can try between meetings. LeToya asks people to clarify their goals early so the work stays focused and efficient.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
LeToya commonly uses Attachment-Based ideas, Client-Centered methods, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Attachment-Based approaches look at how early relationships shape current interactions and can help with intimacy-related concerns or family issues. Client-Centered methods focus on listening and reflecting so people can organize their own thoughts and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and suggests experiments and skills to try between sessions.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before recommending a plan. The focus is on finding a method that feels manageable and fits the person’s day-to-day life.
