About Shamekias

Shamekias Lampkin is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 16 years of clinical experience. She helps people managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She also addresses parenting concerns, career questions, bipolar management, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coaching needs.

Her approach is practical and direct. She listens to each person's story and identifies unhelpful thoughts and habits that keep problems stuck. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings to test what works. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the main methods she uses to map thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Lampkin views clients as the experts on their lives and builds plans around their goals. She offers structured conversations that break down big problems into manageable tasks. This often includes simple behavioral experiments, thought records, and goal-setting to track progress.

Over time she helps people develop skills to handle stress spikes, manage anger, and reduce symptoms of anxiety or depression. For parenting and career concerns she focuses on concrete strategies to improve communication and decision-making. For trauma and abuse the work proceeds at a pace the person is comfortable with, with attention to coping skills and stability.

Sessions are conducted in English from Mississippi. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to begin. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How CBT and structured work translate to online sessions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It uses clear exercises such as thought records and behavioral experiments to reduce worry, low mood, and overactive anger responses.

In practice she also emphasizes concrete coping skills for trauma and stress. That involves short skills practice, grounding techniques, and planning safer ways to face difficult situations while building day-to-day stability.

Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will review goals and preferences, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients are invited to check progress and suggest changes to the process.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekly routine, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use audio-only or lower-bandwidth options if that suits their circumstances better.
