About Keesha
Keesha Barthelemy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She draws on three years of clinical practice to help people handle stress, mood struggles, addiction issues, and relationship strain. She speaks English and Haitian Creole and aims to make sessions direct and useful for day-to-day life.
Keesha focuses on real problems people face, such as anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficulties with parenting or major life changes.
Background and approach
She also supports people navigating ADHD, bipolar challenges, and substance-related concerns. Her approach favors clear goals and practical steps rather than long lectures. In sessions she listens closely and helps clients name what matters most.
She often uses simple tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and to build healthier habits. She also brings mindfulness practices to help people calm strong emotions and notice patterns as they happen. Keesha’s style is warm and straightforward.
She values strong communication and works with each person to set achievable goals. Sessions move at a pace the client can handle and focus on usable skills for coping and growth. People who reach out can expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and short-term planning.
Keesha works with many concerns including family conflict, addiction, self-esteem, and life transitions. Her aim is to help people find clearer direction and feel more in control of daily challenges.

How therapy approaches look in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s priorities. The therapist reflects what she hears and helps clients set goals that matter to them, which can be helpful for anger, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and aid recovery from substance problems.
Mindfulness Therapy encourages noticing the present moment and bodily signs of stress without judgment. Short practices and breath work can help calm intense reactions and make anger easier to recognize before it escalates.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level, adjusting as needs change over time.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to meet. Video calls let the therapist and client connect face-to-face for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief updates, coaching, or carryover between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum between visits.
