About LaTasha

LaTasha Cowan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with 22 years of professional mental health experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and anger. She also works with concerns such as ADHD, addictions, LGBT issues, relationship and family challenges, parenting strain, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.

LaTasha focuses on straightforward conversations. She encourages clients to name what feels hard and to notice how thought patterns affect mood and behavior. Sessions involve listening, practical problem-solving, and planning small steps that people can try between meetings. She emphasizes honesty and clear goals rather than vague talk.

Her background includes long-term clinical work with people dealing with trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her practice. Those methods guide how she helps people manage upsetting memories, shift unhelpful thinking, and build motivation for change.

People who come for help with anger often want skills for handling quick tempers, workplace frustration, or resentment that grows over time. LaTasha works with each person to identify triggers, practice new responses, and set realistic steps for change. She supports parents and caregivers in managing stress related to family roles and illness challenges.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered from Mississippi. LaTasha notes that beginning therapy usually starts with a short intake conversation to clarify goals and practical next steps. She asks clients to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule the first session.

How LaTasha uses common approaches online

LaTasha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change patterns of thinking that fuel anger and low mood. CBT involves identifying thoughts, testing them against reality, and practicing different responses to reduce reactive behavior.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change. This approach uses open questions and reflective listening to build commitment and small, achievable steps toward new habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. LaTasha will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus on thought work, motivation, or trauma processing at any stage.
