About Felisha
Felisha Tillman is a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) based in Tennessee who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She brings a direct and compassionate approach that aims to make therapy practical and understandable. Sessions focus on helping people feel less overwhelmed and more able to manage daily life.
Felisha uses short-term skills and longer-term strategies together. She helps clients untangle patterns that keep them stuck and builds concrete coping tools for emotion regulation and communication.
Background and approach
Work often includes setting clear goals and tracking progress so people can see change happen. Her background includes eight years in community mental health, crisis intervention, and integrated behavioral health settings. That experience informs how she responds to urgent needs and ongoing stressors.
She draws on multiple approaches to tailor the work to each person’s situation. In sessions she combines compassionate listening with structure. People can expect skill building, guidance about why emotions show up, and steps to shift unhelpful habits.
The focus is on practical changes that fit real life. Felisha supports a wide range of concerns beyond the main specialties. These include issues such as attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, body image, substance use concerns, dissociation, and problems with guilt or shame.
She works in English and practices in Tennessee.
Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy
Felisha often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear, which can help with anxiety, avoidance, and low motivation. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches specific skills to shift those thoughts and related behaviors, useful for worry, stress, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can include trying a few techniques and adjusting the plan based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
