01About Lakisha
Lakisha Mark-McConnell is a licensed professional counselor in Georgia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, and low self-esteem. She also focuses on feelings of isolation, questions about life purpose, self-love, and women's issues. Her approach aims to create a supportive space where clients can explore what matters to them and practice new ways of coping.
She sees each person as the expert on their story and looks for strengths to build on.
Background and approach
Sessions blend practical tools with attention to personal values and, when helpful, spiritual concerns. Conversations are straightforward and oriented toward small, doable steps that fit day-to-day life. In session she uses client-centered methods to listen deeply and respond to what a client needs in the moment.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test different behaviors. Mindfulness techniques support managing strong emotions and staying grounded during stress. She also draws on solution-focused and trauma-focused techniques when the goal is quick, concrete change or careful processing of past hurt.
These methods are adapted to each person’s pace and comfort level. Lakisha aims to balance coping strategies with longer-term shifts in self-understanding. Teletherapy is offered through video, phone, chat, and text options.
The intake process is simple: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Lakisha brings 11 years of experience as an LPC and works with clients in Georgia who prefer an approach that values both practical change and personal meaning.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on attentive listening and responding to each person’s priorities. Online sessions using this style give space for clients to set the agenda and explore what feels most important that day. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, known as CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers clear exercises to try between sessions; it works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills to change patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and pacing, then shape a plan together. That collaborative process can mix listening, skill-building, mindfulness practice, or trauma-focused steps as needed to match what the client wants.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows visual connection for deeper conversation, while phone calls require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing support easier between longer sessions. These options give flexibility to work on coping skills and personal goals without having to travel.
