Therapeutic Approaches and Online Treatment Options



LaKeisha uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the person’s perspective and goals guide the work. This approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to build self-awareness and confidence in making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT is practical and skills-focused, which can be useful for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning. Motivational Interviewing is a strengths-based method that supports readiness for change by exploring an individual’s own values and motivations. It is often helpful for addressing addictions, impulsivity, and ambivalence about change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and LaKeisha works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and pacing to match where someone is in their journey, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with LaKeisha can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access care from home or between responsibilities while maintaining continuity of support with a licensed professional.
