Serving is my purpose are the words used to describe how passionate I am about helping others. My name is Lakesha Duncan, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who truly enjoys helping others. I have a variety of experience providing clinical services to adolescents and adults in inpatient and outpatient settings, residential and community/home settings.
I have experienced using treatment modalities of CBT, EMDR, Trauma, Substance Abuse, Anxiety and Depression. I come offering services with a strength based approach using the principle of come as you are, because when you come into my presence it is truly a non judgmental zone and all are welcomed. My Bachelor's degree is in Criminal Justice from Arizona State University and a Master's degree in Substance Abuse Counseling and Professional Counseling both from Grand Canyon University.
In addition to providing clinical services to clients I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and engaging in praise and worship.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
