About LeToya
LeToya McClay is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 17 years of clinical experience. She focuses on short-term counseling, typically over 6 to 10 sessions, and aims to help people reach clear, practical goals in a limited timeframe. Her work covers stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, parenting, and blended family issues among other areas.
McClay uses an integrative approach rather than a single fixed method. She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to match the work to each person’s situation. Sessions emphasize straightforward strategies and conversations that address immediate problems.
In practice she often pairs shorter, goal-focused work with attention to a person’s past relationships and attachment patterns. That can mean looking at how history shapes current reactions, and then trying out different ways to respond. She also uses solution-focused ideas to set small, measurable steps between sessions.
Her background includes work with people who have severe trauma histories and with attention and behavior concerns. McClay mentions use of play therapy in other settings during the school year, while her current private practice centers on short-term counseling for adults. She offers services in English and works from Mississippi.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how past relationships shape present reactions. It looks at patterns of closeness, trust, and conflict and helps people try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by identifying unhelpful patterns and practicing different responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many mood or stress concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels practical, then choose methods together. That may mean pairing attachment ideas with CBT tasks, or using mindfulness exercises alongside narrative work to shift how someone tells their story.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, like scheduling shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It also lets people try out interventions and homework between meetings so change can be tested in everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods to an online setting to keep the focus on concrete steps and measurable progress.
