About Deleishia

Deleishia Haliburton-Collins is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with ten years of experience. She focuses on building practical steps that help people feel steadier in day-to-day life. Deleishia emphasizes strengths and honest conversation to guide next moves.

She helps people work through relationship strain, low self-esteem, anxiety, anger, and depression. Coaching around life transitions and ADHD-related challenges is also part of her work. Sessions aim to break big problems into small, manageable steps.

Background and approach

Her style is straightforward and respectful. She listens for what matters most and then offers tools that fit each person's rhythm. That can mean trying new ways to manage stress, shifting unhelpful thoughts, or practicing calmer responses to conflict.

Deleishia uses a mix of client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative work. Those methods are chosen to match a person's goals and the problems they want to change. She frames therapy as a team effort where the client guides the pace.

People who want clear, usable strategies with a supportive guide often do well with her. She invites anyone ready to take a first step to reach out and begin a short matching process to see if they’re a good fit.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following each person's goals. The therapist creates a space to talk through concerns and then helps identify practical next steps that feel doable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete exercises people can try between sessions to change patterns like anxiety or unhelpful thinking.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and together decide which methods match the client's goals, preferences, and current challenges. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how people connect. Video calls are useful for a full face-to-face session, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing coaching and brief updates. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules, make shorter touchpoints possible, and allow people to use the format that best supports their progress.
