She brings ten years of clinical experience and a straightforward, empathetic style to sessions. Her approach aims to help clients find clearer thinking and practical ways to feel better.
TaKisha encourages small, steady steps that build confidence over time. In sessions she uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses.
Background and approach
She works with concerns such as focus and attention, mood swings, relationship strain, career stress, and the everyday pressure of parenting. She also supports people navigating identity and sexuality questions, grief from family-of-origin issues, and the strain of caregiving or compassion fatigue. TaKisha listens for each person's strengths and life story before suggesting strategies.
She often combines skill practice with reflective conversation so clients can both learn new habits and understand why old patterns repeat. Practical homework and short exercises are common between meetings. Her work fits people who want clear tools and a calm, patient guide while they make changes.
Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. TaKisha is licensed in Texas as an LPC and has a decade of experience supporting adult clients toward more balanced daily life.
Practical Approaches and Online Therapy Options
TaKisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot thought patterns that increase stress and anxiety. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses so daily moods and behavior can change.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple awareness practices. Mindfulness helps people notice strong emotions without reacting immediately, which can reduce impulsivity and improve focus over time.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. TaKisha discusses goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, and then adapts methods to fit each person's needs in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a short check-in option, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats give flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments.
