Hello!
My name is Dr. Lashanda Baylor and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Mississippi. I am also a Doctor of Professional Counseling.I have been providing Behavioral Therapy for a wide array of issues and populations for 20 years.
I would describe my approach as goal oriented, and client centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Both modalities are hands-on, practical approaches to problem-solving.
I believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I’ve been with Dr. Baylor for over a year now. Over that time I have made so much progress. I don’t need as frequent appointments anymore but it’s great to have someone that helps you see the bigger picture on tough days.
Dr.Baylor has been immensely helpful.
Dr. Batlor is incredible! She is not your typucal therapist, but more like a life coach, which is what I need. She provides a ton of education, great excercises to do while you are on your own, listens well and has a very good instinct on addressing the concerns/personal challenges most of us do not see in ourselves. I really enjoy my time with her and have so much confidence in her ability to help guide me through my difficult times.
I’d highly recommend Dr. Baylor to anyone. She is responsive, insightful and caring.
Dr Baylor goes way beyond what I expected. In a 30 min session so much is achieved and a lot of follow up messages, exercises, encouragement, follow up.. She's kind, caring, undetstanding,, straight to the point.I love her energy and approach, very knowledable and likeable. She makes me see things from a different perspective and has a lot of exercises, coping strategies, ways and techniques to overcome and accept things. We come from very different cultures which doesn't matter at all. Havent been seeing her for very long but IHighly recommend!!!
