About

Welcome,
My name is Lakisha Kennedy. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for the state of South Carolina. I have 7 years of Clinical Counseling experience working with adults and children who seeks professional help for depression, self-esteem, stress, anxiety, grief, adjustment disorder, anger, attention-deficit/hyper activity disorder (ADHD), relationship issues, parenting problems, and trauma. My therapeutic background has allowed me to work with diverse populations in various settings, such as for non-profited organizations, schools, and private practice.

My therapy style brings forth empathy, humor, and a person-centered approach to clients who I work with. My therapeutic approach and compassion in the helping process allows me to build rapport and meet clients right where they are. I believe in treating each individual client with the respect they deserve, therefore, the service I provide is non-stigmatizing and confidential. My clinical approach consists of Trauma-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I will process with each client individually while utilizing these evidence-based practices, to ensure I meet their needs specifically, as every client is unique.

If you have been doing the same things and getting the same results, feeling overwhelmed with life challenges, feeling as if your emotions are everywhere and are having difficulties trying to figure why you're feeling the why you do, then it's time you get help today. That's right! Take control. Find the best ways to manage your mental health. Do you have trust issues and prefer keeping what's bothering you to yourself? Who will care for you more than yourself? So, let's do something different this time. Now that you are here, right at this exact moment let's get started. It all happened for a reason. I am absolutely proud of you for finally taking time out to come this far to seek professional help. Don't look back because this decision you've just made could change your entire life for the better. Imagine that, you were destined to get the support you need from Find A Therapist! Let's just give it a try. Why wait? I am excited for you! I care and am here to help you on your journey to healing. The empowerment and support you will receive though my services are genuine.
