About Lashanda
Dr. Lashanda Baylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 23 years of experience. She brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions and focuses on clear goals that matter to each person. She emphasizes respect and dignity in every conversation.
Her work centers on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. She also helps people facing life changes, addiction concerns, impulsivity, mood disorders, grief, eating issues, and challenges with self-esteem. Parenting strain and women's issues are additional areas she addresses.
Dr. Baylor uses a client-centered stance. That means sessions are shaped around what the person needs and values. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy inform her approach to emotion regulation and relationship patterns.
In sessions she aims for practical, hands-on steps people can try between meetings. Conversations focus on clear, manageable goals and skills that fit into daily life. She explains ideas plainly and works together with the person to set realistic next steps.
Her approach is collaborative and goal oriented. People who want a straightforward, respectful therapist who offers skill-based strategies may find this style helpful. To begin, follow the site’s Start Therapy process to match and schedule a session.
How these approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making the sessions match what the person needs; it helps people who want a respectful space to talk through goals and values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and reactions, and it can help when trust or closeness feel difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers clear exercises and experiments to try between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life, and she may combine elements from different approaches as needed.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten travel time, and enable shorter check-ins when those are helpful. It also supports working on practical skills and homework between sessions, which many people find useful for progress.
