About Shamekias

Shamekias Lampkin is a licensed professional counselor in Mississippi who supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, bipolar concerns, parenting and family challenges, career transitions, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 16 years of experience, she draws on practical techniques to help clients build coping skills, increase motivation, and regain confidence. Her approach centers on recognizing each person as the expert of their own life while offering guidance and tools to move through difficult moments.

She emphasizes a collaborative stance that honors strengths and encourages gradual change rather than quick fixes. Shamekias uses a structured, evidence-informed framework to help clients identify unhelpful patterns and experiment with new ways of thinking and behaving.

Her work aims to empower people to take courageous steps toward greater fulfillment and resilience, providing steady support throughout the process.

Practical CBT and Flexible Online Care

Shamekias uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of responding. CBT focuses on practical exercises and skill building that can reduce anxiety, improve mood, and support coping with stressful situations.

She emphasizes a strengths-based, collaborative process where the client and therapist work together to determine which techniques fit best for the client's goals and preferences. That exploration can involve trying different strategies and adjusting the plan as progress is made so the approach aligns with individual needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access consistent care while balancing work, family, and daily responsibilities, and they provide multiple ways to practice skills between meetings.
