About Tanisha

Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck about change, and Solution-Focused methods can speed work toward clear goals.

Clients often come with anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strain, relationship and intimacy concerns, or struggles with attention and addictive behaviors. She also supports people facing trauma, eating issues, bipolar mood concerns, career stress, and LGBT-related challenges. The focus is on problem-solving, building coping skills, and setting manageable next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work

Tanisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT sessions often include clear worksheets or homework to practice between visits, which can be easy to share and track remotely.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. DBT methods focus on concrete skills and step-by-step practice that can be reviewed in follow-up online sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, or Solution-Focused methods fit best based on the client’s goals and preferences. Adjustments are made over time as needs become clearer.

The original biography did not list specific session formats to advertise. Please confirm current session options before booking. Many people choose online work because it can fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use online meetings to assign exercises, review progress, and keep momentum between sessions.
