More about Gisheera

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Arkansas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on creating affirming, compassionate spaces for diverse communities, with a deep commitment to understanding intersectional experiences. I bring expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and LGBTQ+ related challenges, offering nuanced, culturally responsive care.

My therapeutic approach honors individual journeys, whether you're exploring sexuality, managing relationship dynamics, confronting life transitions, or working through personal growth. I'm particularly passionate about supporting clients through intimate challenges, family complexities, and identity exploration.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I aim to empower clients to develop resilience, self-understanding, and meaningful strategies for emotional well-being. I believe in collaborative, strength-based counseling that respects each person's unique narrative and potential for healing.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
