About Keesha
Keesha Beasley is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Illinois. She brings six years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on helping people get clearer about the life they want. Keesha aims to help clients name obstacles, spot strengths, and build practical steps toward their goals.
She takes a relational view of problems, looking at how family, friends, and work affect daily life. That means conversations often include how relationships shape feelings and choices.
How Keesha works
Keesha draws on attachment-based ideas to understand connection and on solution-focused work to find immediate, useful changes. Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to the person. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques when thinking patterns get in the way, and narrative therapy to help people reshape the stories they tell about themselves.
Trauma-focused practices are available for those dealing with past hurts and abuse. Keesha commonly addresses stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, and career-related issues. She also works with themes like abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and forgiveness.
Concerns such as compassion fatigue and managing life transitions are part of her practice. Sessions are offered in English. Keesha notes that complex or recent grief may be better served by a specialist in that area.
She encourages people to consider what they want from therapy and to take a first step toward change.

Online support options
How attachment and solution-focused work translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how connection and trust affect feelings and behavior. Online sessions can help identify patterns in relationships and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people recognize core emotions and respond to them differently to improve closeness and understanding.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and adjust methods over time. That makes therapy collaborative and tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer real flexibility. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face conversation and reading nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit a lunch break or low-bandwidth situations. Live chat or messaging is helpful for short check-ins, between-session support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare, or travel.
