About Latasha

Latasha Hicks is a licensed clinical social worker who uses practical, goal-focused methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship strain, and ADHD. She emphasizes clear goals and steady progress so sessions feel purposeful and time-effective. Latasha aims to make therapy approachable and compassionate for people who are nervous about starting care.

She begins with an assessment to identify one or more concrete goals. Treatment choices follow those goals so sessions stay focused on change.

Background and approach

The work is collaborative - Latasha listens, offers guidance, and adjusts plans to match each person’s needs and pace. Her background includes experience with trauma, including domestic violence and sexual abuse, and with behavior-focused approaches. She blends methods that help people notice patterns, build new skills, and strengthen emotional connections in important relationships.

That mix supports mood, anxiety, grief, and stress work. Sessions are intended to be respectful and sensitive. Latasha aims to create a calm, straightforward space where people can talk through painful experiences and practice new coping strategies.

She frames progress as steady steps rather than sudden fixes. People who choose her often want a concrete roadmap and a therapist who will check in on progress. Latasha uses common therapeutic tools to keep work practical, and she tailors conversations and exercises to fit individual concerns and daily life.

Online therapy grounded in practical approaches

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values despite uncomfortable emotions. It’s often useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, then practicing realistic alternatives to change symptoms like anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and the client’s own goals to build trust and strengthen motivation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and collaborate with the client to pick strategies that match their needs and goals. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helping and what isn’t, so therapy stays practical and personalized.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from seeing one another. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow quick reflections, homework support, or ongoing check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still using evidence-based techniques.
