    About Latasha

    Latasha Hicks is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people move toward clear, achievable goals. She uses a goal-directed approach and works in a straightforward, supportive way. The first session is used to understand concerns and agree on what to work toward together.

    She brings 11 years of clinical experience and a history of working with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship challenges, and ADHD. Treatment starts with an assessment and then a plan is made to address the agreed goals. Sessions aim to be practical and time-focused so progress can be tracked.

    Latasha blends approaches such as Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to match what each person needs. She takes a collaborative stance, inviting input and adjusting the plan as work proceeds.

    Clients can expect a respectful and compassionate tone. Latasha describes herself as easy to talk to and she adapts her communication to each person. The goal is steady progress toward measurable changes rather than open-ended talk.

    Signing up begins with a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling step. Latasha practices in Louisiana and holds the credential LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

  2. How therapeutic approaches shape online work

    Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses open conversation to increase motivation and resolve mixed feelings about a next step. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress.

    Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and uses empathy and understanding to build trust. It can make it easier to talk about painful topics like grief or past trauma and to decide what steps feel right. These approaches are explained in plain terms during the intake so the person and therapist can pick the best way to work together.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That process may include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan over time.

    Please confirm available session options before booking, since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy life, such as allowing quicker check-ins or avoiding travel time. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and homework to suit an online setting so progress stays practical and focused.
