About Lakia

Lakia Jordan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and mood challenges. She also works with those coping with trauma and abuse, anger, grief, and intimacy-related concerns. Parents seeking guidance around parenting, adoption and foster care matters, or attachment questions can find practical help.

Lakia emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation. Lakia draws on a decade of clinical experience to shape visits around each person’s needs.

Background and approach

She listens first, then suggests steps that feel doable. Sessions focus on real-life tools for managing emotions, improving communication, and addressing family problems. She adapts pacing and techniques so clients can move at a comfortable speed.

Her background includes work across mood disorders, postpartum depression, bipolar conditions, and ADHD-related struggles. She also addresses issues like domestic violence, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), and post-traumatic stress when they are part of a client’s story. Lakia pays attention to shame, guilt, isolation, and the lingering effects of trauma.

Therapy conversations may include practical coping skills, strategies to rebuild trust and intimacy, and steps for managing relationship stress. She helps clients explore forgiveness, self-love, and rebuilding routines after major life changes. Lakia treats each person’s goals as central when shaping treatment.

She practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. Lakia describes the first step as the hardest and offers straightforward guidance to help people begin the process.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online care

Many clients benefit from evidence-based techniques that teach practical skills for daily life. One common approach focuses on building coping strategies for stress and anxiety, using step-by-step exercises to reduce overwhelm and improve mood. Another approach targets trauma and post-traumatic stress symptoms by helping people process difficult memories at a safe pace and learn grounding skills to manage reactions.

Lakia treats finding the right method as a team effort. She listens to a person’s goals and preferences, then suggests approaches to try. Together they monitor what helps and adjust the plan so methods match the client’s needs and progress.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation and allow visual cues. Phone sessions offer a simpler option when screens aren’t convenient. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between meetings or choose a pace that feels manageable. These options add flexibility and help sustain work on relationships, parenting, and mood management from wherever the client is.
