About LaKeshia

LaKeshia Fisher is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Mississippi who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and issues around intimacy. She also supports people coping with depression, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, and major life changes. Her approach is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping someone regain direction and rebuild a sense of purpose.

She offers a space to talk through feelings of being stuck, drained, or disconnected from goals and passions. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals rather than abstract theory. Keshia draws on multiple therapy methods to meet people where they are and to address both emotional struggles and everyday obstacles.

With 12 years of experience, she has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, domestic violence, bipolar disorder, and substance use. Her work has included supporting members of the LGBT community and people navigating family conflict, blended family stress, or caregiver strain. This experience informs a flexible style that adapts to each person’s needs.

In sessions she uses approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavioral strategies, and emotionally-focused ideas to address relationship and emotional problems. The goal is to identify patterns, build coping skills, and strengthen communication and self-understanding.

People who choose Keshia can expect a collaborative process. She helps identify strengths, set achievable goals, and practice new skills so changes can carry into daily life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It helps people who need empathic support to sort out what matters and to make choices that fit their values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It is useful for people who struggle with intense reactions, impulsivity, or chronic emotional pain.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss your goals and try methods that match what you need. Together you can adjust techniques over time until you find what helps most.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use video or phone options depending on comfort and bandwidth. Licensed professionals can guide practical steps and skill practice across remote sessions so progress can continue between meetings.
