About

Hi there, I'm Lakesha. Licensed Florida therapist and Qualified MFT/MHC supervisor. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Let's work together to identify what's not working and discover the tools needed to help get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I also integrate cognitive restructuring, emotion regulation, and mindfulness to help build resilience and develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together! Specialties: I am a Qualified Supervisor for MFT & MHC Credentials & Experience: Certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT); Racialized Trauma Informed; Trauma informed
