BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Keisha uses cognitive-behavioral methods to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related issues because it breaks concerns into specific patterns to work on.She also draws on dialectical behavior strategies to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These are practical skills that can reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning when emotions run high.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Keisha will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. She often combines methods and adjusts them as progress is made.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also make it possible to continue work across life changes while still focusing on concrete skills and problem-solving.
