Approaches to Healing in Online Sessions
Lakishia commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship and supporting clients to explore their values and goals at their own pace. This approach is helpful for people seeking validation, self-understanding, and a respectful space to process feelings.She also works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and managing everyday stressors.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another approach she employs for relationship and attachment concerns. EFT helps people understand emotional patterns in close relationships and develop new ways of connecting and responding to one another.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Lakishia collaborates with each client to determine what fits best given their needs, goals, and preferences. Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into varied schedules and life circumstances while maintaining ongoing therapeutic support.
