About Tekisha

Tekisha Norwood, LCSW, CSW, draws on 14 years of clinical experience to offer a compassionate, client-centered approach to mental health. She focuses on practical tools that build motivation, self-esteem, and confidence while supporting people through career challenges and life transitions.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes collaboration and respectful listening so clients can explore thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Tekisha blends evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy with attachment-informed perspectives to address concerns including anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, and ADHD.

She also brings attention to related areas like caregiver stress, chronic illness, grief and end-of-life issues, and communication or codependency problems. Licensed in Georgia (GA LCSW CSW007842), she creates an environment that supports growth and practical problem solving as clients work toward individualized goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Remote Care

Tekisha commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and developing psychological flexibility so people can take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can help with stress, anxiety, and life transitions. CBT teaches practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and improving coping strategies.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to understand goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked in the past, then blends methods to create a tailored plan that fits the person's needs and circumstances.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward treatment goals.
