Lakisha Boykin, LCMHC

Lakisha Boykin, LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor), offers a warm, supportive approach to therapy for people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, family and relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. She creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult feelings, manage negative thoughts, and work toward meaningful change while honoring each person as the expert of their own life.

With six years of direct experience working with individuals facing life transitions, mood concerns, family conflict, marital issues, and self-esteem struggles, Lakisha brings both compassion and practical assessment skills. She has served as a clinician in a behavioral health walk-in clinic conducting clinical assessments and making recommendations for follow-up services. She is familiar with collaborating alongside psychiatrists, primary care physicians, and other community agencies when coordinated care supports better outcomes.

Lakisha’s style is receptive, empathetic, and motivational; she supports clients who are ready to explore their goals, address caregiver stress, cope with compassion fatigue, manage workplace or financial concerns, or move through major changes such as divorce, postpartum adjustment, or disaster-related stress. She is accepting new clients and aims to help each person clarify values, build coping skills, and move toward the life they want to create.
