About Latasha
Latasha Hicks is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 11 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and ADHD. Her work emphasizes clear goals and practical steps to address pressing concerns.
She begins with a thorough assessment to identify one or more concrete goals. Treatment is planned around those goals so sessions focus on progress and practical change. Latasha describes her approach as collaborative; she works together with each person to decide what will be most helpful.
Latasha uses a mix of therapeutic approaches to match the issue at hand. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is part of her toolbox for working with emotions and relationship patterns. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered methods, and Mindfulness Therapy when those fit client goals.
Sessions prioritize understandable steps rather than jargon. Latasha aims to make conversations straightforward and useful, with attention to how a person’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect to their concerns. She plans sessions so progress can be tracked over time.
Her focus includes helping people cope after trauma, handle grief, reduce anxiety, and rebuild after relationship strain. Latasha also supports people managing attention and mood challenges. To start, the site’s matching questionnaire is used and a first session is scheduled.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and name strong emotions and recognize patterns that repeat in relationships or personal responses. It can be useful when feelings are hard to describe and when people want to change how they respond to each other or to stress.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on recognizing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and small actions that align with those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses concrete exercises to shift unhelpful patterns.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before, then recommend approaches to try. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted based on what is most useful for the person.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Licensed professionals can use video or phone in different ways to focus on feelings, practice exercises, or review homework without requiring extra travel.
