DeKeisha Moore-Barrett

DeKeisha Moore-Barrett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people improve mental health and daily functioning. She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington and has been practicing since 2017. DeKeisha focuses on practical support and clear steps that people can use right away.

Her work centers on anxiety, depression, stress, parenting strain, intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes. She also addresses body image, blended family concerns, fertility and postpartum experiences, and caregiver stress. Sessions aim to balance understanding with action and to build tools that fit everyday life.

DeKeisha describes her style as warm, collaborative, and solution-focused. She aims to create a space where clients feel heard and can set achievable goals. Conversations typically look at patterns, then move toward specific strategies clients can try between sessions.

She uses an integrative approach that draws on cognitive behavioral methods, solution-focused techniques, trauma-aware care, and psychodynamic ideas. That mix is adapted to each person’s needs rather than applied in the same way for everyone.

DeKeisha works primarily with women and tailors sessions to individual goals and circumstances. People who want practical steps, honest reflection, and a partner in problem solving may find her approach helpful.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

DeKeisha uses a few evidence-based techniques in her practice and adapts them to each person’s situation. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on clear, short-term goals and practical steps that create quick momentum.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will collaborate with clients to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and daily demands. Over time the plan can shift as needs change and progress is tracked together.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for focused check-ins during a lunch break or between appointments. They can also accommodate people who prefer a session without being on camera or who need shorter meetings some weeks. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and pacing to match what works best for each client.
