Serving is my purpose are the words used to describe how passionate I am about helping others. My name is Lakesha Duncan, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who truly enjoys helping others. I have a variety of experience providing clinical services to adolescents and adults in inpatient and outpatient settings, residential and community/home settings.

I have experienced using treatment modalities of CBT, EMDR, Trauma, Substance Abuse, Anxiety and Depression. I come offering services with a strength based approach using the principle of come as you are, because when you come into my presence it is truly a non judgmental zone and all are welcomed.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
