About Promise

Promise Lemoine is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes. Promise aims to create an open space where clients can speak honestly about thoughts and feelings without judgment.

She uses a person-centered approach that keeps the client’s own goals and values at the center of work. Sessions often involve looking at long-held beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve the person. Promise guides clients to recognize those patterns and practice different ways of responding in day-to-day life.

Her background includes several therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These approaches are used to address problems like coping skills, self-worth, communication problems, and addictive behaviors.

Promise describes her style as direct and grounded while remaining compassionate. She encourages people to be curious about themselves and to try practical strategies in between sessions. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

People who come for therapy can expect focused conversations about what matters to them and concrete steps to practice outside sessions. Promise’s goal is to help clients reconnect with their values, reduce patterns that cause harm, and build routines that support a more meaningful life.

Using person-centered and evidence-based approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the client’s lead to build understanding and self-acceptance. This approach helps people clarify values and make choices that fit who they want to be.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people focus on actions that match their values even when emotions are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses straightforward exercises to change unhelpful patterns and improve coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Promise will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, strengths, and preferences. That shared decision-making can mix elements from different approaches to suit the situation.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. They can also allow for different ways of working, like practicing skills between meetings and using exercises that translate well to screen-based conversations.
