About DeKeisha
DeKeisha Moore-Barrett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who practices in Texas. She has a Master of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington and has been working in the field since 2017. Her work centers on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, and major life changes.
She aims to create a warm, collaborative space where clients feel heard and respected. Her background combines practical tools and thoughtful reflection.
Background and approach
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Solution-focused methods support quick, goal-oriented steps that can be practiced between sessions. She also draws on trauma-informed ideas and psychodynamic principles to understand patterns that repeat over time.
Sessions typically balance conversation and action. The therapist explores recurring patterns, helps build insight, and teaches coping strategies for everyday life. Practical exercises and small, achievable goals are used to make steady progress.
The overall goal is increased confidence, steadiness, and clearer direction. DeKeisha brings ten years of experience and works from a collaborative stance. She tailors each session to the person in front of her, adjusting pace and focus to match individual needs.
Her approach aims to be straightforward and compassionate so people can move forward with real skills. People seeking support for issues such as intimacy-related concerns, parenting, blended family challenges, body image, caregiver stress, fertility matters, communication problems, or life purpose may find this approach useful. Sessions are conducted in English from a Texas practice.
Approaches that guide online work
DeKeisha draws from several evidence-based techniques to help people navigate difficult seasons. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress. Solution-focused methods concentrate on setting small, achievable goals and building on what already works; these techniques can help when people want practical changes quickly. Trauma-informed ideas and psychodynamic principles are used to notice recurring patterns and understand how past experiences influence present choices.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Over time the approach may shift as goals are met or new issues arise, and the therapist will explain options and involve the client in those decisions.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or between commitments. It can also allow a quicker check-in when someone needs a short session or prefers not to use video. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets, and pacing to work well in an online format, helping clients practice skills between meetings.
