More about Lakeia

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions and emotions. With extensive experience, I work with clients navigating stress, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, and self-esteem concerns. I'm particularly passionate about helping people cultivate self-love, improve communication, and discover their life purpose.

My approach addresses a wide range of life experiences, including social anxiety, divorce and separation, body image concerns, attachment patterns, caregiver stress, financial worries, and workplace challenges. I also support clients through midlife transitions, seasonal mood changes, commitment questions, aging concerns, and feelings of emptiness. I'm committed to exploring multicultural perspectives and women's issues with cultural sensitivity and respect.

I believe in creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your authentic self and build meaningful connections—both with others and within yourself. My goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate change, heal from loss, and move toward greater clarity and purpose in your life. I'm honored to support your journey.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
