About LaKeshia
LaKeshia Fisher is an MS LPC - a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Mississippi with 12 years of experience. She helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their goals. Common concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family problems, addictions, grief, and challenges with sleep or eating.
LaKeshia uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy along with client-centered approaches and cognitive behavioral techniques. Sessions focus on naming hard emotions, spotting interaction patterns, and trying small changes to improve day-to-day functioning. She also draws on dialectical behavior ideas and existential perspectives when that fits the issue.
Her background includes work across community and institutional settings supporting adults and adolescents with mood disorders, substance use concerns, trauma, and adjustment difficulties. She has experience with members of the LGBT community and people facing complex co-occurring problems.
In session she tends to listen for how feelings shape behavior, and then helps people practice different responses. Practical skills for managing anxiety, setting boundaries, and coping with life changes are commonly used alongside reflection about values and meaning.
People who are considering therapy with her are encouraged to start by describing the problem they want to change. From there she and the client map concerns, pick an approach, and set small, measurable steps to try between sessions.
How her approaches translate to online work
LaKeshia often draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name difficult emotions and patterns that keep repeating. EFT can be useful when emotions are hard to describe and those feelings affect everyday relationships and reactions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy appears in sessions as practical tools and exercises for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors tied to anxiety, depression, or addiction.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. LaKeshia collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most in daily life.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or reducing bandwidth demands by using audio-only when video is difficult. These practical benefits often help people maintain regular participation while they test new ways of responding and practicing skills between appointments.
