About Lekeisha

Lekeisha Newbold is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with five years of clinical experience. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, parenting challenges, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. She also lists life purpose among her focus areas and supports people exploring what comes next after big shifts in work, relationships, or health.

Her background includes two years as a home-based clinician working with children who had severe emotional disturbances and their families, and more than ten years supporting women through prenatal and postnatal transitions. She combines straightforward conversation with practical tools to help people manage symptoms and make daily life more manageable.

In sessions she uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means sessions often focus on identifying patterns, testing small changes, and building on what already works. Conversations tend to be problem-focused and action-oriented when that fits the issue at hand.

Lekeisha describes herself as a Christian counselor and can offer clinical counseling from a Christian viewpoint or keep the work strictly clinical, depending on the client's preference. She aims to help people sort through family conflicts, communication problems, grief, parenting strains, and questions about meaning and purpose.

People considering her practice are encouraged to note she provides services in Michigan and conducts work in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and formats before booking.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's concerns. The therapist reflects back what she hears and prioritizes the client's perspective, which helps clarify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors connect; online work often uses worksheets, behavior experiments, and homework to test small changes between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lekeisha will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and practical needs, and then suggest starting points. That collaborative decision can be adjusted as sessions progress to better fit the person's situation.

The biography does not list specific session delivery formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit a meeting into a lunch break, avoid travel time, or choose audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use focused, practical tools in virtual sessions just as they do in person, and the emphasis is on making therapy workable within everyday life rather than on any single format.
