About Latasha
Latasha Hicks is a licensed clinical social worker who uses Narrative and other practical therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship strains, and ADHD-related concerns. She works from a straightforward, goal-directed stance that keeps sessions focused and clear.
With 11 years of clinical experience, she begins by doing a careful assessment and then helps set one or more concrete goals. Sessions are planned around those goals so progress can be tracked and adjusted as needed.
Background and approach
The work is collaborative - she listens, offers tools, and checks in about what is and isn’t working. Her approach draws on Narrative Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That mix lets her help people reframe difficult stories, learn practical skills for mood and anxiety, and address relationship patterns when they arise.
Latasha emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation. She adapts language and pacing to each person. People who meet her find it easy to talk through painful memories and current stressors without feeling rushed.
She offers sessions remotely for clients in Louisiana and communicates in English. The first step is a short assessment and goal-setting conversation, after which sessions follow the agreed plan and move at a pace the client finds manageable.

How Narrative and Practical Therapies Work Online
Latasha blends Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with client-centered listening. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and helps separate them from their problems so new meanings can be tried. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each client to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean trying a Narrative exercise one week and using ACT or CBT skills the next, always checking in about what feels useful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker check-in, and text messaging supports short updates between sessions. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from work, home, or on the go and to choose what best supports each client’s routine and energy level.
