How Lakesha’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's pace and helps them name goals and priorities, which can help with stress and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses simple exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety and low mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication. Short skill practices and breathing or grounding techniques are often used between sessions to reduce overwhelm.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single plan.
Confirm the current online session options before booking. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy week and helpful for keeping continuity during life transitions. Practical benefits include being able to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and use tools learned in therapy right away in daily routines.
