About TaKisha
TaKisha Howard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 10 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, parenting strain, relationship and family concerns, and coping with life changes.
She works in a straightforward way. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. TaKisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts, try small changes, and build routines that ease daily strains.
Clients can expect conversational sessions that look at what is happening now and what patterns may be keeping problems going. She asks questions, offers tools to try between meetings, and checks progress as work continues. The aim is manageable change rather than big, sudden fixes.
Her background includes a decade of working directly with people on attention, motivation, mood, and coping skills. That experience informs how she helps people handle parenting pressures, blended family issues, communication problems, and career stress.
TaKisha describes clients as the experts on their lives and focuses on discovering strengths to address difficulties. She encourages people to try concrete strategies first and then adjust approaches based on what works. The practical emphasis is on skills people can use in everyday life.
How sessions work
How CBT and Mindfulness inform online sessions
TaKisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different responses. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings so small changes can be tested and adjusted. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and attention difficulties.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. Mindfulness helps reduce reactivity and improves focus, which can support stress management, impulsivity, and coping with difficult emotions.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most, so techniques are chosen together rather than prescribed up front.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins, or avoid travel. It can also allow a therapist to share worksheets, track practice between sessions, and try skill-based exercises that fit into everyday routines.
