About LeToya
LeToya McClay is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has practiced in Mississippi for 17 years. She focuses on short-term counseling and aims to help people reach clear goals in a limited number of sessions. Her style is practical and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on getting results without unnecessary prolonging of therapy.
She works with people facing a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, and stress.
Background and approach
She also addresses mood disorders, bipolar concerns, and difficulties tied to life transitions. LeToya pays attention to attachment and family-of-origin themes that often affect current relationships. Her approach mixes several methods so each person gets what fits them best.
She draws from attachment-based ideas, client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral strategies, emotionally-focused practices, and mindfulness tools. Sessions are conversational and practical, focused on skill-building and clearer thinking. LeToya commonly offers short-term work of about six to ten sessions when that fits a person's goals.
She aims to be straightforward and nonjudgmental, helping people identify steps they can try between sessions. Many clients find the structure helpful when they need to address a specific problem or make a concrete change. LeToya sees people across a broad set of life challenges including parenting strain, caregiving stress, blended family issues, codependency, and cultural concerns.
She practices in Mississippi and conducts sessions in English.
Online approaches that fit your life
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and reactions; it helps people understand trust, closeness, and patterns that repeat in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening approach where the person sets the pace and topics while the therapist offers empathy and reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then try methods that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made if something isn’t working.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing problem-solving, and flexible communication between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy days and varied schedules.
