About LaKeshia

LaKeshia Fisher is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) who helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about what comes next. She listens for what matters most and works with each person to clarify goals. Her style aims to make difficult problems feel more manageable and to help clients take small steps forward.

She brings 12 years of counseling experience in Mississippi and has worked with adults facing mood concerns, substance use, grief, and life transitions. She also has experience supporting people from the LGBT community and those dealing with relationship and family stress. Aging and geriatric issues and caregiver stress are among the areas she focuses on as well.

Her approach combines client-centered listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She uses emotionally focused ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings. Sessions concentrate on real habits, thought patterns, and interactions that get in the way of daily life.

Keshia emphasizes a respectful, collaborative relationship. She helps clients identify strengths, try new coping skills, and adjust routines that no longer serve them. The work is geared toward clearer decisions and steadier emotional footing.

People who want direct conversation and concrete strategies may find her approach useful. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and suggests step-by-step changes clients can practice between sessions.

How therapy methods translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. Online or in-person, this means the therapist reflects what the client says and helps them find their own solutions, which can be helpful for life transitions and caregiver stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build different habits, often through short between-session practice tasks that fit into daily life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Online sessions can teach breathing, distress-tolerance, and communication techniques that clients use when stress spikes.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying techniques from different models and adjusting as progress is made.

Session logistics and formats should be confirmed before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist when you schedule to learn what session lengths and formats are offered and how they can fit your routine.
