About Lakita
Lakita Long is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trouble sleeping, low self-esteem, anger, or the effects of trauma and abuse. Her style is straightforward and respectful, aimed at making the first steps feel manageable for someone who's worried or unsure.
She uses clear conversation to find what matters most to each person. Sessions are shaped around practical goals and small steps that can be tried between meetings.
Background and approach
She pays attention to how thoughts and behaviors interact and helps people notice patterns that make problems worse. Over a decade of work informs her approach. That experience includes supporting people who struggle with motivation, confidence, communication problems, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and social anxiety.
She adapts strategies to fit individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. In sessions she aims to be calm, sensitive, and compassionate. Conversations focus on concrete changes clients can try at home.
She encourages realistic goals and tracks progress so people can see improvement over time. Starting therapy can feel hard, and she acknowledges that courage. The first meetings are usually about understanding what’s most troubling and building a simple plan.
From there the work moves at a pace that fits each person’s life and goals.

Practical therapy approaches for online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, is a core part of her work. It focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing practical ways to change them. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, anger, sleep issues, and low self-esteem.She pairs clear techniques with conversations about values and goals. Together the client and therapist choose strategies that fit daily life and personal priorities. That collaborative process helps people try new behaviors and adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules. Video is useful when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing support between longer meetings.
These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and school routines while still using evidence-informed techniques. The therapist will help choose formats and methods that match each person's goals and daily life.
