She has five years of clinical experience and has worked in court and corrections settings offering both individual and group therapy for at-risk youth and adults.
Tasheena emphasizes healthy boundaries, self-care, and clear communication. In sessions she aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can talk honestly and try practical steps toward their goals. She often helps clients break big problems into small actions they can try between visits.
People who reach out can expect a collaborative process that focuses on immediate concerns and realistic progress. Tasheena supports work on anxiety, addictions, family challenges, and relationship patterns like codependency, tailoring her approach to each person’s needs.
Approaches that guide online work and goals
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist follows the client’s lead, creating room to talk through what matters most and clarify personal goals. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort feelings and priorities.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. It offers simple tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that keep someone stuck, like avoidance or repetitive worry.
Motivational interviewing supports people who feel unsure about change. It uses questions and reflection to uncover personal reasons for taking steps forward. This method is often helpful for substance concerns, commitment issues, or any situation where building motivation is needed.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions focus on listening, setting priorities, and trying a few techniques to see what fits.
Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by removing commute time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can adapt tools from CBT, solution-focused work, and motivational interviewing to remote sessions so people can practice skills between appointments.
