About TaKisha
TaKisha Howard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the challenge of life transitions. TaKisha uses clear, direct conversations to help clients find practical next steps.
She affirms each person's strengths and supports small, steady changes that build confidence. Her work often focuses on attention and focus concerns, including ADHD-related struggles with concentration and memory.
Background and approach
TaKisha also assists people coping with relationship stress, parenting questions, career doubts, and the emotional fallout of trauma or abuse. She addresses issues such as guilt, shame, isolation, and problems that come from family of origin and blended family dynamics.
TaKisha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior, and Mindfulness Therapy, which teaches present-moment awareness and calm. In sessions she mixes practical exercises with reflective discussion so clients can try new habits between meetings. The approach emphasizes concrete skills rather than lengthy theory.
Her perspective centers on collaboration - she sees clients as experts in their own lives and helps them use their strengths to reach goals. Conversations are paced to each person’s readiness, with options for brief coaching-style check-ins or deeper therapeutic work. TaKisha encourages anyone feeling stuck to take one small step toward change.
She practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. People can expect straightforward guidance, hands-on tools, and attention to both immediate concerns and longer-term goals.
How CBT and Mindfulness work online
TaKisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT breaks problems into small parts - thoughts, feelings, and actions - so clients can try concrete experiments and track progress between sessions.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple practices for calming the body and focusing attention. Mindfulness exercises help reduce reactivity and can build tolerance for uncomfortable emotions over time. These methods are helpful when stress, worry, or concentration problems feel overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. TaKisha will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped you before. Together you can decide whether to focus on skill-building, mindfulness practice, short coaching-style check-ins, or a mix of methods that fits your needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different rhythms of life. Video calls let you have fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief updates, homework check-ins, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and other commitments.
