About LaTasha
LaTasha Cowan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 22 years of professional mental health experience. She lists stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and young adult issues among her areas of focus. LaTasha also notes work related to cancer, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, parenting, anger, self-esteem, bipolar issues, and compassion fatigue.
LaTasha uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels overwhelming and decide on practical next steps. Sessions tend to be focused and goal-oriented, with attention to thoughts, behaviors, and coping skills. She combines techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing with trauma-focused methods when past events are part of the problem.
Clients often work on managing anxiety, reducing avoidance, improving mood, and handling life changes like school, work, or caregiving. She helps people who are dealing with the ripple effects of cancer and with recovery from substance problems. The emphasis is on learning tools that can be used between sessions.
LaTasha keeps sessions direct and grounded. Conversations include checking current struggles, practicing specific skills, and planning small experiments to test new ways of coping. She pays attention to relationships and family patterns that affect daily functioning.
People who value clear feedback and practical strategies tend to fit her style. Language offered is English. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats using the therapist's scheduling flow.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
LaTasha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical skills for managing mood and anxiety. CBT sessions often involve tracking thoughts, testing new behaviors, and practicing coping strategies between meetings.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. That approach focuses on clarifying personal goals, resolving mixed feelings, and strengthening commitment to small, achievable steps.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together with the client decide which approaches to prioritize. The process is collaborative and adjusts as progress or challenges appear.
The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into study, work, or busy schedules by removing travel time and allowing meetings during breaks. They also make it easier to keep consistent appointments and to use short check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so skill practice continues between meetings.
