I specialize in helping clients move beyond surviving to thriving and to create positive change in their lives. I also enjoy working in collaboration with clients to find common sense solutions to everyday problems. With years of expertise in creating reparative relationships with my clients, I’ve witness them become better able to experience a wide range of emotions and develop an increased capacity to tolerate stress. This is the work of therapy! I believe in the resiliency of the human spirit and I'm committed to strengthening your emotional, mental and spiritual health.
Be Well & Be Love(d),

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Lakeba Williams. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Immediately upon meeting Dr. Williams, I felt at ease. She's so easy to talk to. She always provides a safe space for me to discuss my past experiences and traumas and is amazing at providing guidance. After every session we've had, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I'm always in good spirits afterwards. She helps to set you up with the best (internal) tools to help you get in touch with yourself. I’d recommend her to anyone. She truly has a gift.

Dr. Williams is the BEST!!! She is calming, kind, empathetic, and has great words of wisdom. She has taught me so many tools to manage my anxiety and to help me improve my quality of life as a whole. I am so thankful for my time with her!

Dr. Williams has the highly sought-after cultural competence that some counselors say the have, but do not. She remembers the entire scenario and can refer to people involved by name. Her advice lifts a weigh off of my chest and helps direct my intention to change.

Dr. Williams is wonderful. She always helps me leave our session with something to take back and help me work through things on my own during the week. She understands my challenges, prompts me with helpful questions and brings helpful frameworks so I can work through challenges. She has been extremely helpful.

Dr. Williams is a Godsent to me. She makes me feel very comfortable sharing details of my life with her and I feel that she is helping me to help myself. I am looking forward to this journey.

I’ve just had one session with Dr. Williams but in that one session I felt seen and heard. She encouraged me to simply open up without sensoring myself and she gave me words that I didn’t even know my soul longed to hear. I’m so grateful to her for that.
