Lakisha Hayes, LPC — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Lakisha!

I help clients make positive change and reach their full potential. I work with people from diverse backgrounds to heal from past issues and empower them to succeed in life.

My focus

I work with clients who have questions about life experiences and need guidance on why they do the things they do. I help you see how past experiences have affected you and how you can make positive change to gain your power back.

My approach

I use Psychodynamic Therapy, EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-focused Therapy, and Positive Psychology to help you understand patterns, process experiences, and create meaningful change.

My communication style

I create a warm and understanding environment where you feel heard and seen. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling empowered and understood.

My journey to mental healthcare

I began by working with people facing various challenges, then became a teacher working with inner-city kids. I realized that mental health support was essential for growth, so I pursued what I wanted to do all along: provide therapeutic support to people as they go through various stages of life.

My goals for you

I help you explore your biggest issues and find the best ways to resolve them.

Our first session

We'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This helps me create a tailored plan and see where you are and where you'd like to go in the future.
