About Aisha
Aisha Jakachira is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience in mental health and addictions. She practices in Arizona and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, anger, low self-esteem, career concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also notes a focus on codependency, attachment and family communication problems.
Aisha draws on straightforward, practical methods in sessions. Conversations are interactive and goal-oriented. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking. She brings in DBT skills for emotion regulation and grounding techniques when strong emotions arise.
She also uses client-centered ways of listening and EMDR for trauma-related symptoms when appropriate. Mindfulness practices are introduced to help people notice patterns without judgment. Motivational interviewing is used when people want change but feel stuck.
Aisha has worked in many settings across the addiction and mental health field, including inpatient and outpatient programs, residential care, schools, corrections, community treatment centers, and online. That background shapes how she supports people who have lived through loss, abandonment, adoption or caregiver stress.
Sessions focus on clear skills, steady pacing, and checking what actually helps in daily life. People learn ways to set boundaries, manage urges, reduce overwhelm, and rebuild a sense of self outside relationships. To begin, readers are asked to use the service’s matching flow to schedule a first session and see the online therapy options available.
How sessions work
How her approaches come alive in online sessions
Aisha uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep them stuck. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework to practice new responses between meetings.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping skills for intense emotions and relationship stress. DBT skills in sessions focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear communication techniques.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Aisha will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted based on what proves useful.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are set through the service. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can also adapt activities for quieter or lower-bandwidth settings, and offer shorter or longer meetings to match schedules.
