Getting to know Keshanda Garland
My name is Keshanda Garland. Please feel free to call me Kesha. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Virginia native. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from South University and have over 15 years of experience working with clients who have mental health issues.
My approach
It is my job to make therapy sessions feel less intimidating. I accomplish this by being friendly and easy to talk to while striving to give you a feeling of control. Being open and honest is important in therapy, so my goal is to create an environment that feels realistic. I am always open to questions and feedback. I am a trauma-informed and strengths-based counselor. I utilize cognitive-behavioral techniques, focusing on my clients' self-concept, goals, and resilience. I support personal responsibility as a modality for change.
My focus
I enjoy working with adults and adolescents, and my specialty lies in supporting clients with anxiety disorders, panic attacks, depression, stress and relationship issues, and trauma-related disorders. I am dedicated to helping my clients foster growth and healing through a collaborative therapeutic relationship.
My communication style
My goal is to create a place where you can be yourself-open and honest. I strive to create a nonjudgmental zone. Clients and others have described me as easygoing, caring, compassionate, open-minded, professional, and ?down to earth.?
My journey to therapy
To me, therapy is exploring alternatives. I wanted to create an opportunity to identify and address what holds us back from reaching our fullest potential.
My goals for you
I approach goal setting by listening to my clients' goals and needs and assisting them in developing their own therapeutic goals. Counseling requires an active effort on your part. To be most successful, you will need to work on things outside of sessions that we discuss during our time together.
