Keesha Beasley, LMFT

Keesha Beasley is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) licensed in Illinois who supports individuals and families in managing life’s challenges and moving past barriers. In addition to her LMFT, she is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), board-certified by The National Board for Certified Counselors (NCC) which indicates national recognition of counseling standards, and she is a certified PREPARE/ENRICH facilitator, offering targeted support for couples who are engaged or preparing for marriage.

Her work centers on helping people clarify the life they want to lead by identifying obstacles, recognizing existing strengths, and developing practical, realistic solutions. In collaboration with each person she works with, she helps create a plan to reach personal and relational goals while promoting greater self-awareness. Therapy with her includes exploration of values, beliefs, desires, sense of purpose, and interests across individual, relational, cultural, and occupational areas, with encouragement, motivation, and tools provided to support goal attainment. She notes that those seeking help with recent or complex grief and loss may benefit from a provider with specific expertise in that area.

Keesha approaches difficulties from a systemic perspective, viewing problems as shared responsibilities that are shaped by relationships with family, friends, colleagues, and other important people. Her therapeutic style is culturally sensitive, person-centered, trauma-focused, strength-based, and integrative, drawing on multiple models to fit each person’s needs. Whether someone chooses to work with her or with another provider, she recognizes the importance of taking steps toward wellness and change.
