So, who is Latoya Mason, anyway?

For the one's who like it short...

I’m Latoya Mason, a licensed EMDR therapist and somatic trauma expert specializing in nervous system regulation for ambitious women leaders. As an author, coach, and lifelong entrepreneur, I built a thriving private mental health practice from the ground up, helping high-achieving women overcome trauma, navigate divorce, and conquer major life transitions.

With over 15 years as an entrepreneur and my certification as an EMDR Provider, I help successful women entrepreneurs clear imposter syndrome, burnout, and overthinking—so they can lead with calm, clarity, and confidence. I’ve done it myself and for countless ambitious women just like you!

When I’m not guiding women to nervous system breakthroughs, I’m mom to my amazing twins and wife to my incredible husband.

Now, for those of you who like all the details .....

I grew up as a military brat ...

Growing up as a military child, I moved from base to base every 3-4 years—new locations, new schools, new friends. This shaped my flexible introvert nature and honed my ability to connect deeply and quickly with ambitious women from all walks of life.

​Now, as a licensed EMDR therapist for high-achieving women, I use that gift to build trust fast, helping you regulate your nervous system, heal trauma, and step into the confident leadership you’re meant for. Clients tell me I light the path to their greatness—because I’ve walked it myself.

I've always been an entrepreneur ....

My entrepreneurial journey started young—I dreamed of opening a bookstore with a tea shop, fueled by my love for books and peppermint tea (until Barnes & Noble crushed that vision!). That spark never faded.

In college, I wrote papers for classmates (guaranteeing Bs with the same prompt!), did hair on the side, and earned my degrees—all while building resilience as a 
high-achieving woman entrepreneur. In 2012, I launched my private mental health practice in North Carolina, made plenty of mistakes, but never quit. Through obstacles, I published 2 books, pivoted fully virtual during COVID, and kept thriving.

Today, as a licensed EMDR therapist for ambitious women, that same grit helps you overcome entrepreneurial burnout, trauma blocks, and nervous system dysregulation to scale with confidence.

My Educational Background

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), LCMHC -Qualified Supervisor, LCPC, and Certified EMDR Therapist serving ambitious women in Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina. With extensive training in trauma-informed therapy, somatic healing, and energy healing, I help high-achieving women regulate their nervous systems and break free from burnout and imposter syndrome.

​I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling, both from North Carolina Central University—credentials that ground my work in evidence-based practice tailored for women leaders and entrepreneurs.
