Getting to know Lakel White

Hi there, I'm Lakel! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from the University of North Florida, I take a person-centered and collaborative approach to therapy, ensuring that each client feels heard, valued, and supported. My practice focuses on helping adults who struggle with negative self-image, depression, and anxiety. My passion lies in empowering clients to develop self-compassion, resilience, and the tools needed to navigate life's challenges with confidence. My approach I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to encourage mindfulness and values-based living, and Strengths-Based Therapy to highlight resilience and personal growth. I also incorporate elements of Mindfulness-Based Therapy to help clients develop greater self-awareness and emotional regulation. My focus I primarily work with adults who struggle with negative self-image, depression, and anxiety. Many of my clients experience feelings of self-doubt, overwhelm, or difficulty managing life transitions. I am most comfortable treating mood disorders, stress-related concerns, and self-esteem challenges, helping individuals develop healthier coping strategies, build resilience, and cultivate a greater sense of self-compassion. My goal is to provide a supportive space where clients can explore their emotions, gain clarity, and work toward meaningful change. My communication style I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to express themselves openly. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, ensuring that clients feel heard, validated, and empowered in their journey. Sessions with me are a balance of genuine connection, thoughtful exploration, and practical skill-building-I meet clients where they are while gently challenging unhelpful patterns that may be holding them back.
