About Keesha

Keesha Beasley is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Illinois with six years of clinical experience. She meets people where they are and helps them name the life they want to live. Her work focuses on practical steps toward clearer goals and healthier relationships.

She uses narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult stories about themselves and their relationships. That often leads to new choices about how to respond to stress, anger, or anxiety.

Background and approach

She also draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early bonds affect current connections and patterns. In sessions she mixes cognitive behavioral strategies with emotionally focused techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and practice different ways of connecting. Solution-focused methods are used to set small, achievable goals and track progress between meetings.

The result is a blend of talking, reflection, and concrete exercises to try in daily life. Keesha commonly helps people facing relationship strain, intimacy questions, parenting stress, identity and LGBT concerns, career pressures, and the effects of trauma or abuse. She also addresses issues like shame, jealousy, infidelity, codependency, and family of origin problems.

Work with her is collaborative and direct. She asks practical questions, highlights strengths, and helps people build step-by-step plans. Sessions aim to increase self-awareness and create realistic ways to move forward.

Online session options

How narrative and attachment work online

Online sessions can include Narrative Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy delivered in ways that fit your life. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships and helps people re-author those stories to create different outcomes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of bonding shape current ways of connecting and helps people try new ways of relating to loved ones. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change anxious or depressed patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative step can start in the first session and be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people talk face-to-face when seeing reactions matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work well for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter updates, tracking homework, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
