Great to meet you!

Kesha is a culturally competent licensed mental health therapist in PA who understands the mental health processes of clients from different economic backgrounds. I have 24 years experience in assisting individual clients dealing with a range of emotional difficulties including anxiety, depression, stress management, confidence building, gender identity, and couples issues. I am a certified life coach with a niche in marriage/family. I specialize in couples and relationship issues.

My approach to therapy

A variation of modalities for individual/couples counseling based on the needs of the client. I use Family Systems, Choice Therapy, CBT/EFT to assist clients to become more in tune with themselves and one another, reconnect, regain trust and clarity in the union. I utilize mindfulness to enhance inner strengths that increase self esteem. I will incorporate life coaching, positive self image/talk, Law of Attraction, mindfulness, meditation, art/creative play therapy and spiritual remedies.

What you can expect from me

During my 53 minute counseling sessions I begin by building trust and rapport with clients because it is important for the client to believe that they have a voice in their mental health. The client can expect to feel heard with positive feedback and tools to implement that will assist in alleviating symptoms. I assign homework that may include watching a video, podcast, reading a book or researching topics so that clients become self sufficient and have a part in their emotionally recovery.
