About LaTasha

LaTasha Cowan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with 22 years of experience in mental health care. She focuses on helping people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or the long-term effects of trauma. She also supports those facing ADHD, addiction concerns, mood disorders, and the emotional challenges that come with cancer.

Her approach starts with building a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name what feels hard.

Background and approach

She listens for practical patterns in thoughts and behavior and helps clients try small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, so progress can be checked week to week. LaTasha uses methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to address unhelpful thinking and to boost motivation for change.

She also applies Trauma-Focused Therapy when past hurts continue to affect present functioning. These approaches are used in ways that fit each person rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. She is experienced working with relationship and family stress, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.

Young adult issues and post-traumatic stress are also areas she attends to. Her style is steady and practical, aimed at helping people find clearer routines, better coping skills, and safer ways to process hard memories. People who prefer a straightforward, supportive counselor may find her approach helpful.

She invites anyone ready to take a first step to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session based on availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life

LaTasha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on practical steps and skills that can be practiced between sessions.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and to strengthen motivation when habits or addictions feel stuck. This approach is collaborative and helps someone build a plan that feels doable. When past events continue to cause problems, Trauma-Focused Therapy is used to gently address those memories and reduce their impact on daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss options, try methods that match your goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps you most. Clients and therapist decide the best path by checking progress and preferences as they go.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversation, phone works when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
