Keisha has been super helpful and supportive during this tough period in my life. She always listens and provides a different way to look at things.

Reviewed May 2021

Keisha was an amazing and supportive councillor. She referred me to a lot of information including information about love languages which helped me with some relationship issues I was having. She was also very patient with me whenI could only use the chat feature and was not able to have phone or video sessions.

More about Shekeisha

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a licensed psychotherapist in Florida with several years experience providing direct care to adult clients with a wide range of problems including eating disorders, anxiety, depression, drugs and alcohol addiction, relationship issues, and women issues. I possess a strong background working with diverse populations in private practice, private agency, outpatient, inpatient, and acute care settings.

My therapeutic style is warm and non-judgmental. I do not believe in judging or labeling my clients; I believe that each client should be treated with dignity, respect and compassion. My approach is holistic and integrative, combining treatment models such as cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic therapy to help clients better manage problems leading to therapy.

If you are ready to embark on our journey together I am here to support.

I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Reviewed March 2021

Keisha is great in listening, reflecting on, and identifying my needs. It would be helpful to ask more questions, rather than tell me what I am doing or thinking. This will help me come to an understanding or allow me to reflect on my own.

Reviewed March 2021
