About LaKesha
LaKesha Thomas is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida who helps people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and addictions.

Her approach aims to make starting therapy feel simple and achievable for someone who is nervous about reaching out.
She keeps sessions direct and down-to-earth. LaKesha focuses on listening first and asking practical questions. She creates space for thoughts and feelings without judgment so people can speak openly about what matters to them.
Background and approach
Her work draws on several well-known therapy approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness practices are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping. Emotionally-Focused and client-centered methods guide conversations about relationships and self-worth.
In sessions she breaks issues into small, manageable steps. That might mean trying a simple behavior change, practicing a short mindfulness exercise, or experimenting with new ways to express feelings. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
LaKesha brings five years of experience in clinical settings to her work. She tailors strategies to each person’s needs, and she talks through options so clients can choose what feels right. Sessions are offered online in formats that fit busy lives.
Online approaches that focus on coping and connection
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns that feed anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist follows the person's lead and helps them make sense of their experience.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. LaKesha will talk about different methods and try approaches that fit the person's goals and preferences. Together they set small steps and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, chat can be useful for brief check-ins, and messaging lets people write between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other daily commitments.
