Latasha Hicks , LCSW

Latasha Hicks is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana with 11 years of professional experience. She brings focused training in behavior therapies and trauma-informed care, including work with survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse. Her practice addresses mood disorders, anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, grief and loss, depression, and ADHD.

Latasha emphasizes goal-directed treatment, beginning with a thorough assessment to identify one or more measurable goals. She then collaborates with clients to design a practical treatment plan aimed at steady progress within a time-efficient framework. Her clinical toolbox draws on several evidence-informed approaches to match interventions to each person’s needs.

Approachable and compassionate, Latasha adopts a collaborative and supportive stance in therapy. Clients have said she is easy to talk to, and she tailors dialogue and care plans to respect each person’s unique circumstances and preferences. She encourages those taking the first step toward help and frames that decision as a meaningful act of courage.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Latasha uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility - this approach supports people who are coping with anxiety, stress, or difficult emotions by teaching mindful acceptance and committed action. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and related concerns. In addition, Latasha draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients lead the pace of exploration and the therapist offers empathetic understanding and support.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Latasha works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time, checking in and adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend regular appointments, maintain continuity of care, and access therapy from home or other convenient locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who align with each client’s needs.
