Latasha Hicks , LCSW

Latasha Hicks is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana who brings focused training in behavioral therapy and trauma treatment to her work. She has specialized experience addressing trauma of many kinds, including domestic violence and sexual abuse, and she applies a range of therapeutic approaches to support mood concerns, anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, grief and loss, depression, and ADHD.

Her practice emphasizes clear, goal-directed treatment. After a thorough assessment she and the client establish one or more goals, and treatment is planned with those goals in mind so progress is practical and time-efficient. Latasha draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Mindfulness Therapy to tailor interventions to each person’s needs.

She takes a collaborative and supportive stance in therapy, and clients have said she is easy to talk to. Latasha treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to fit each individual. She acknowledges that beginning therapy can take courage and supports clients through that first step and beyond.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take committed actions toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and patterns that interfere with living a meaningful life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and stress-related concerns and offers practical strategies to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist follows the client’s lead and works to understand their perspective. This approach supports self-exploration and builds confidence in addressing relationship difficulties, grief, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Latasha works with each person to select or combine methods that fit their goals, preferences, and needs so the plan feels practical and personalized.

Online therapy offers flexibility to engage from home or other convenient locations through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule consistent sessions, access support between appointments, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who adapt methods to the online setting.
