Background and approach
LaKeisha combines open conversation with goal-oriented techniques that help people notice what’s working and what needs to change. Over a 15-year career she has worked in community mental health, foster care settings, and alongside law enforcement as a co-responder. That experience shaped her comfort addressing first responder issues and caregiving stress.
She names cultural awareness as a priority and brings that perspective into each session. LaKeisha uses methods like Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Those approaches support practical problem solving, behavior changes, and clearer communication.
Sessions include concrete tools for managing emotion, impulsivity, and everyday challenges. People meet her expecting straightforward guidance, steady support, and a focus on skills that can be applied right away. She works by building on each person’s strengths and setting realistic steps toward change.

04Online support
Approach and online care that fits your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on hearing the whole person and responding with empathy and support so people can find their own solutions; it is useful for building self-confidence, improving relationships, and working through grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address impulsivity or ADHD-related patterns.Choosing an approach is collaborative. LaKeisha will listen to your goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. The process is meant to be flexible - methods can be blended and changed as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and exercises that benefit from seeing facial cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, homework check-ins, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other daily demands while still working with a licensed professional.
