About LaKeshia
LaKeshia Fisher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi who focuses on helping people regain balance and rest in their lives. She speaks plainly and listens closely so parents and adults can talk about stress, sleep problems, relationships, addiction, or grief without feeling judged. She invites clients to notice what matters and to try small changes that make daily life more manageable.
With 12 years of experience, she has worked across many settings with people facing mood disorders, substance use, eating concerns, adjustment to life changes, anxiety, depression, and grief. Her background includes work with people from LGBTQ communities and with those who have complex or co-occurring needs. She also has experience providing care in institutional settings.
Her approach borrows from several psychotherapy methods. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in each person's goals and lived experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques are used to address unhelpful thoughts and habits that interfere with sleep, mood, and daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are offered for emotion regulation when stress and anger feel overwhelming.
Sessions focus on practical steps - building routines, communication skills, coping plans, and small behavioral changes that support rest and recovery. She works collaboratively with clients to set realistic goals and track progress. To begin, readers should follow the site's Start Therapy flow and complete the matching questionnaire.
All sessions are provided in English and are offered from Mississippi. The therapist notes that costs vary and are managed through a cancellable subscription model coordinated by the service.
Approaches that support better sleep and emotional balance
LaKeshia uses Client-Centered Therapy to make sessions focused on each person's priorities. That means conversations begin with what feels most important to the client and progress at their pace, which can help people who are overwhelmed by sleep disruption or life change.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thoughts and behaviors that interfere with rest. CBT techniques often include adjusting daily routines, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and experimenting with sleep-friendly habits that improve daytime functioning.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are offered when strong emotions or anger make it hard to relax. These tools teach grounding, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation techniques that can reduce nighttime rumination and improve calm.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to discuss what methods feel most useful and to shape a plan around the client's goals, needs, and preferences. This conversation can happen over the first few sessions and is adjusted as progress is made.

Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, avoid travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when that's most practical. Discussing how sessions will fit into everyday life is part of planning care.
