About Keisha
Keisha Wood is a Licensed Certified Social Worker (LCSW) based in Arkansas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, sleep concerns, parenting challenges, career transitions, ADHD, and related issues. She aims to get to know each person and support practical steps toward clearer thinking and healthier routines. Her approach is warm and interactive, and she focuses on building on existing strengths.
Keisha earned a master’s degree in social work from the University of Tennessee and has worked in social work since 2003. She has practiced across settings including outpatient care, schools, hospitals, and home health. She began providing online therapy in 2016 and also maintains a private practice outside her home.
Sessions emphasize learning tools and skills that help with day-to-day coping. She uses a mix of cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and solution-focused ideas to teach concrete strategies. Conversation is balanced with skill-building so clients leave with practical steps to try between meetings.
Keisha describes her style as relaxed, respectful, and nonjudgmental. She supports clients while also offering gentle challenge to encourage insight into thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The goal is to increase resilience and the ability to manage life’s changes more effectively.
She tailors each plan to the person’s needs and preferences. Keisha encourages people to choose a therapist they feel comfortable with and aims to respond to messages within a day when possible, noting occasional longer response windows on weekends.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s unique needs, helping them set goals and feel understood. It’s useful for building confidence, improving self-esteem, and working through life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks closely at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking patterns and develop better coping skills for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and mood swings.
Keisha works with clients to find the right combination of methods. She discusses goals and preferences and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses, so approach and pace are chosen collaboratively.
Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions around work or family commitments. Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered so you know whether live chats or other online options are available. Many people find remote sessions helpful for consistent follow-through and for practicing skills between meetings.
