About Lakisha
Dr. Lakisha Brimage is a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience. She holds LPCC and LPC-MHSP credentials and practices in Tennessee.
She combines a warm, straightforward style with practical tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other life challenges. She favors a client-centered approach that focuses on each person's goals. That means sessions start with what matters most to the individual and move at a pace that fits them.
How Lakisha works
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to help people change unhelpful thoughts and manage difficult emotions. Her work covers many concerns, including anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, career strain, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Additional focus areas include abandonment, attachment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and family of origin issues. Sessions blend practical skill-building with reflective conversation. Clients practice new ways of thinking and reacting, try small changes between sessions, and review what helps.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used when a person wants clearer steps toward change. She offers therapy in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support options
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's needs first. The therapist listens closely, follows the client's lead, and helps set goals that feel meaningful. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses practical exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new responses, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep problems.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose approaches that match their goals and preferences. That means plans can change as progress is made and new needs emerge.
Online formats offer flexible ways to fit therapy into daily life. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions work well when a session needs less bandwidth or a quieter voice check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, written reflection, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, family, and other commitments.
