About Lakita

Lakita Long is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She draws on a decade of clinical work to create individualized plans that honor each person's situation and goals.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care while addressing issues such as motivation, confidence, social anxiety, and relationship communication. Using a collaborative approach, she adjusts conversations and interventions to fit what a client needs most.

Clients can expect practical strategies aimed at improving day-to-day functioning alongside deeper work around guilt, shame, forgiveness, and cultivating self-love. Lakita encourages those taking the first steps toward therapy and supports a paced process that matches readiness and preference.

CBT-informed care delivered online with flexible session options

Many clients benefit from clear, skills-based methods that address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking patterns and testing practical changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety, sleep trouble, and stress. It can also support work on anger management, self-esteem, and social anxiety by building concrete coping tools.

Lakita approaches treatment as a collaborative process: she will work together with clients to determine which techniques and pacing fit their goals and circumstances. That means exploring options, adjusting plans based on progress, and combining short-term skill building with deeper exploration when appropriate.

Online therapy with Lakita is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase accessibility and scheduling flexibility. These formats allow clients to receive consistent support whether they prefer face-to-face conversation, brief check-ins, or written exchanges, making it easier to integrate therapeutic work into busy lives.
