About LaMeshia

LaMeshia Lipscomb is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who uses a warm, inviting approach to therapy. She creates a calm space where people can speak openly and feel heard. Sessions emphasize practical steps and personal goals so parents and family members can find clearer paths forward.

She blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). That means sessions often start with listening and understanding, then move to small, manageable changes in thinking and behavior.

Background and approach

LaMeshia also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques to help people stay engaged with change. Her background includes training at a mental health facility and practicum work in a church-affiliated independent practice. She earned her degree from Richmont Graduate University where clinical skills were taught alongside integration of faith.

Over nine years she has worked with a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family issues, and parenting challenges. In sessions she helps clients set clear goals and track progress. Conversations focus on reducing stress, improving relationships, and building coping skills for life changes.

She pays attention to multicultural concerns and sensitive issues such as paranoia and self-harm, bringing respectful, steady support. LaMeshia offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online approaches that fit family needs

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist offers a nonjudgmental space where parents and family members can talk about what matters most and set their own goals. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard before practical steps are taken.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and how they affect feelings. Sessions include straightforward exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills, which can ease anxiety, depression, and stress related to family life.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on the emotional bonds between people. It helps partners and family members notice patterns in their interactions and try new ways of connecting, especially when relationships feel strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process can shift over time as circumstances change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to continue work between meetings. Licensed professionals tailor the format to what helps each family member stay engaged and make steady progress.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
