About Tekisha
Tekisha Norwood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support. She draws on 14 years of experience to help people with anxiety, stress, self-esteem, career worries, and other life challenges. Her approach centers on listening and building trust so clients can speak openly and make steady progress.
In sessions she helps people clarify what matters most and set small, doable goals. She uses ideas from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts and build more effective habits.
Background and approach
She also uses attachment-based and client-centered methods to strengthen relationships with others and the self. Tekisha aims for a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can name difficult feelings. She talks through coping strategies for mood concerns, trauma, addiction, and caregiving stress.
She also supports people facing life transitions, chronic illness, or grief by focusing on concrete steps they can take day to day. Her background includes working across settings that shaped her practical style and problem-solving focus. She combines clinical tools with straightforward conversation so sessions feel useful and manageable.
Tekisha encourages small wins that add up over time. People who seek her help often want clear strategies and steady encouragement. She works collaboratively to match methods to each person’s goals.
Many clients leave sessions with a plan they can try between meetings and revisit later.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy teaches people to notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online sessions can use ACT to identify what matters and set small steps toward those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors; it works well for anxiety, stress, and mood challenges through practical exercises done between meetings.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to pick approaches that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Discussions in early sessions focus on what feels most useful and what to try first, and that plan is adjusted as work continues.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different routines. Video lets therapists use visual cues and do longer sessions, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can be a brief check-in or way to practice skills between meetings. These options help people get consistent therapy even with busy schedules.
