About Keesha

Keesha Turner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship and helping clients develop practical tools they can use outside sessions. Her approach centers on listening first and shaping treatment around each person's goals and life circumstances.

Keesha helps with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strains, and career or life transitions. She also works with topics like adoption and foster care, attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, and body image. Sessions aim to address the problem you bring in straightforward language and real steps to try between meetings.

Her clinical style draws from several therapies so she can match methods to needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge unhelpful thinking, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and action, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) when relationship patterns need attention. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are also part of the toolbox for managing strong emotions.

In practice Keesha tailors plans to each person or couple. Typical work includes skill building, communication practice, and short-term goal setting. She speaks plainly and keeps the focus on what will make daily life easier and more manageable.

Taking the first step can feel hard. Keesha offers steady support while clients try new ways of coping and relating to others.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values. It uses acceptance strategies and committed action to cope with difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral experiments to change how someone feels and acts. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on how people relate in close relationships and helps shift patterns that create distance or conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person or couple about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm available session formats before booking, as options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, cut travel time, and allow quick check-ins when needed. It can also support using exercises between sessions, practicing communication skills with a partner, or getting coaching around parenting and adoption-related concerns. Ask about the specific session styles offered so you can pick what suits your schedule and needs.
