Getting to know Tekisha M. Norwood

Let me meet you where you are on your life’s journey. Life, in general can be challenging. Many of us endure distress that has resulted in mental, emotional, and physical anguish. Did you know changing the way you think can influence how you feel and, in turn, how you behave and react to life challenges? Let me equip you with the tools necessary to challenge automatic thoughts and relieve tension caused by stress. My passion is to help people facilitate change by teaching a new way to “think” of challenges as we go about life. My goal is to help you relieve tension brought upon by everyday stressors through the use of effective communication skills, boundary setting, and identifying core issues that leads to destructive behaviors. My educational background includes a Masters of Social Work from the University of Southern Mississippi. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with certification as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have worked with various populations that include people living and affected by HIV, crisis, elderly and disabled, addictions, immigrants, and caregivers to people living with dementia. My treatment approach utilizes cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma informed-care, problem solving, and mindfulness practices. Let’s get started today and live life on purpose!

What should a new client know about working with you?

After our first session, your goals for treatment will be prioritized and formatted. You will understand how therapy is effective in helping you to manage stress and problem-solve. You will understand that therapy is a process and you are the expert in navigating the process, and I am the co-pilot helping to facilitate the process.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
