About Deleishia
Deleishia Haliburton-Collins is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Michigan with 10 years of professional experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, self-esteem, stress, anxiety, anger, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She also works with issues related to communication, control, and workplace challenges.
She believes people know their own story and brings that perspective to each session. Sessions are conversational but goal-oriented. She listens to what matters most and helps clients map small, practical steps forward.
Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered techniques and mindfulness. That mix supports noticing unhelpful thoughts and then testing different responses. Motivational Interviewing and narrative ideas are used when clients want to clarify values or reshape how they tell their story.
In practical terms she helps people sharpen communication skills, set boundaries, and manage anger or anxiety with concrete exercises. She often uses short behavioral experiments and thought records to check what works. Homework between sessions is common when a client wants to build new habits.
People who prefer direct, structured work that still keeps their priorities central tend to do well with her. She invites clients to set clear goals and to review progress regularly. To begin, readers should use the site flow to match and schedule their first appointment.
How CBT, client-centered work, and mindfulness fit into online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client. It helps people clarify goals and feel heard while they decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions; it uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving and is useful for anxiety, anger, and mood concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches focused attention and awareness of the present moment to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences. That may mean starting with CBT exercises, shifting toward motivational techniques, or using mindfulness practices between sessions as needed.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use practices - like brief breathing exercises or worksheet reviews - in the space where daily stress happens. Licensed professionals can adapt homework and behavioral experiments so progress continues between meetings.
