About Tunjua

LMHC in Florida with 26 years of clinical experience, Tunjua Nathaniel helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, addictions, trauma, and life changes. She works with concerns such as parenting stress, grief, intimacy issues, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and LGBT-related challenges. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

Tunjua uses a mix of methods to address practical problems and painful memories. She draws on client-centered work to listen and prioritize each person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify patterns of thinking and change unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy helps with intense emotions and coping skills. She also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy for relational patterns and EMDR for processing trauma.

In sessions she focuses on clear steps people can try between meetings. This may include practicing new communication moves, tracking mood and triggers, and learning specific coping skills. Conversations balance exploring feelings with concrete tools for daily life. The emphasis is on manageable changes rather than long lists of technical concepts.

Tunjua has worked in Florida settings across 26 years, gaining broad experience with mood disorders, family stress, personality-related concerns, and caregiver strain. Her LMHC credential is listed as FL LMHC. She brings long-term clinical experience to practical problem solving.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy places the client’s concerns and goals at the center. Online sessions using this approach focus on listening, clarifying priorities, and shaping the work around what the person says matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises. In remote sessions CBT often uses worksheets, skill practice, and structured check-ins to track progress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Delivered online, DBT can emphasize short skills coaching, homework, and clear behavior plans to manage strong emotions.

Choosing the best approach is part of the early work. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and preferences and agree on which methods to try. That plan can shift as progress and needs become clearer. This collaborative stance makes it easier to test strategies and adjust focus over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day – sessions can be scheduled around work, caregiving, or travel. Remote sessions also let conversations concentrate on skills practice, tracking mood between appointments, and reviewing exercises without extra commute time.
