Difference between a "Check-in counter" and a "Ticketing counter"?

I'll be flying from the LAX airport and I need to visit the check-in counter to receive my boarding passes (for the first and then all the connecting flights) and check in my baggage. When searching where I can find these counters in LAX, I didn't find anything, but I found rows of what seem to be called "Ticketing counters". Is that what I'm looking for? Or do I need to search somewhere entirely else?

Thanks!
