Therapeutic approaches and online care
Lakeithia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress that affect work and daily routines.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter even when feelings are difficult. ACT can help with life changes, burnout, and deciding what matters in work and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods based on their goals, needs, and what feels most helpful. Clients can try different techniques and adjust the plan as they go.
