About Lakisha
Dr. Lakisha Brimage is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Clinical (LPCC) in Kentucky and a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) in Tennessee with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, ADHD, grief, and other life changes. Sessions also address parenting strain, career pressures, sleep difficulties, and intimacy-related issues.
Dr. Brimage blends client-centered work with practical techniques. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps set clear goals. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices are offered to help manage stress and increase present-moment awareness.
She also draws on solution-focused approaches to build immediate coping steps and on motivational interviewing when people want to change habits or move through ambivalence. That mix aims to make sessions concrete and useful rather than only theoretical. People leave with specific skills and small experiments to try between meetings.
Family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and abandonment themes are among the topics she addresses when they affect current functioning. She will help sort how childhood roles or expectations show up now and map practical ways to change them. Work around blended family dynamics, communication problems, or caregiver stress follows the same goal-oriented style.
Dr. Brimage earned a Psy.D. in Behavioral Health Leadership in 2023 and a M.Ed. in Counseling and Human Development in 2013. Her background includes work across varied settings, which she uses to inform straightforward, skills-based sessions. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first meeting.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Brimage commonly works with client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based techniques. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals, which can make discussions feel direct and practical. CBT teaches specific skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Mindfulness therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That process can include trying a skill in session and adjusting based on what helps most.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings into a busy week and keeping continuity when schedules change. Online work can make it easier to have a shorter check-in during a break or to use fewer trips for appointments. The specific session formats available should be confirmed before booking to match what will work best for scheduling and communication.
