About Keesha
Keesha Turner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting and intimacy-related issues. Keesha also supports people facing changes in work, education and life circumstances.
Keesha uses a mix of approaches to help people get clearer about what matters to them and how to act on it. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to work on thoughts and behavior. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques when emotion regulation and relationship patterns are central.
In sessions she aims to build a practical toolbox with each person. That can include skills for managing strong feelings, strategies for improving communication, and steps for coping with setbacks. She often focuses on how patterns from past relationships or family experiences show up now.
Keesha works with a broad range of concerns beyond immediate symptoms. These include body image and eating issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, adoption and foster-care related matters, attachment and avoidance patterns, and commitment or control issues. She also lists coaching as part of her approach for career and life transitions.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Keesha uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in ways that suit remote sessions. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward them while learning to notice difficult thoughts without being driven by them. CBT involves noticing unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve day-to-day functioning.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. DBT offers concrete skills for managing overwhelming emotions and improving relationships, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together online.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Keesha will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and what feels workable in their life. That may mean trying different exercises, tracking progress, and adjusting the plan over time.
