About Latasha
Latasha Hicks, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker in Louisiana with 11 years of clinical experience. She helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and ADHD. Her work centers on clear goals and practical steps to move forward.
She begins by assessing what a person wants to change and then sets concrete goals together. Sessions focus on skills and strategies that support those goals. Progress is tracked so work stays focused and time is used efficiently.
Latasha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centered and emotionally-focused methods. She uses mindfulness practices and behavioral approaches to help people notice thinking patterns and try different responses. Her work is direct and structured, with room for personal reflection.
She emphasizes collaboration in the room. The therapist and client decide what will be tried and how to measure progress. This makes adjustments easier when a strategy is not working.
People who reach out often want concrete tools to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, or stress, or help navigating grief and the aftermath of trauma. Latasha explains techniques in simple terms and practices them in session so people leave with usable skills.

How CBT, ACT, and client-centered work online
Latasha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns that feed anxiety or low mood and to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT sessions often include specific exercises and homework to practice between meetings.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on identifying values and taking small committed actions toward them while learning to accept difficult emotions. Client-centered methods are used alongside these approaches to keep the conversation focused on the person's experience and priorities.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will review goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences, adjusting the plan if something does not help. Clients can expect discussion about which techniques to try and how progress will be tracked.
