About Shamekias
Shamekias Lampkin helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem struggles, and depression. She also supports people dealing with family and parenting strain, career challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and big life changes. Shamekias is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, practicing in Mississippi with 16 years of experience.
She uses a straightforward, encouraging style and centers the conversation on the client's strengths and choices. She believes clients are the experts in their own stories.
How Shamekias works
In sessions she listens first, then offers practical steps that fit each person’s situation. Expect clear goals, short-term strategies, and space to process difficult feelings. The emphasis is on building confidence and momentum rather than staying stuck in problems.
Shamekias draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, to help people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors that keep them feeling stuck. She works with clients to try small experiments and change unhelpful habits. Over time these shifts can reduce anxiety, lift mood, and improve daily functioning.
Her approach is collaborative and goal-oriented. She will help you set realistic, measurable goals and check progress along the way. Sessions can include skills practice, problem-solving, and coaching-related techniques to support changes outside the therapy room.
Shamekias aims for a calm, direct tone in session and focuses on practical solutions. She encourages people to take steady steps and offers support through setbacks. Her practice is rooted in helping people build skills they can use long after therapy ends.

How CBT and online sessions work together
Shamekias uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, practical changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and handle anger more effectively.She approaches therapy as a collaboration. Together the therapist and client set goals, try different strategies, and decide which methods fit best. Finding the right approach is part of the work and can be adjusted as progress is made or goals change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can work well for brief updates, coaching-style support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work between sessions.
