Meet LaKeisha

What was your path to becoming a mental health therapist?
My path to becoming a mental health therapist began with me witnessing the difference that individual therapy, couples therapy, and group therapy have made in the lives of those encountering life changes and stressors. As a mental health provider, I love helping others obtain emotional wellness through psychotherapy.   

What should someone know about working with you?
I take pride in being efficient and offering a nonjudgmental, comfortable environment for all clients.  I look forward to facilitating a dynamic and collaborative process using a variety of mental health therapy modalities or styles.
