About TaKisha

TaKisha Howard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with ten years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She also supports those dealing with attention and focus challenges, relationship strain, and feelings of jealousy.

TaKisha works in a straightforward, strengths-focused way. She treats clients as the experts on their own stories and builds on what is already working. Sessions are practical and aim to give tools people can use between meetings.

Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices. That means she helps clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns, try new ways of responding, and use simple mindfulness exercises to manage intense feelings and focus better.

TaKisha has helped people with parenting stress, career pressures, trauma and abuse, and identity questions including LGBT concerns. She pays attention to cultural context and life stage when shaping practical next steps.

She invites people to take the first step even when it feels hard. To begin, clients use the continue button on this profile, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability. TaKisha aims to make the process clear and manageable for people seeking support.

How CBT and Mindfulness Fit Into Online Therapy

TaKisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices to help people manage feelings and change unhelpful habits. CBT involves identifying thought patterns that lead to distress and trying alternative ways of thinking and acting. It can help with anxiety, depression, and impulsive reactions.

Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple present-moment practices. These exercises help with attention, stress reduction, and observing emotions without judgment. Mindfulness can support better focus and reduce reactivity in heated moments.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. TaKisha works collaboratively to pick methods that match a person’s goals, needs, and daily routines. She adjusts strategies over time based on what is helpful and what isn’t.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer online work because it lets them use brief mindfulness practices between meetings and apply CBT tools where they live and work. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote settings, and TaKisha will discuss practical arrangements when you begin.
