About Tameka

Background and approach
That background informs how she structures sessions and problem-solves with clients. Her approach mixes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. She uses these methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behavior changes, and practice present-moment skills to reduce overwhelm.
She often helps with anxiety, panic attacks, depression, stress, and seasonal mood shifts. She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, intimacy issues, grief, addictions, and self-esteem concerns. LGBT concerns and women’s issues are part of her experience as well.
When someone wants more direction, she can take a coaching stance and help build a step-by-step plan. When deeper healing is needed, she guides conversations about control, forgiveness, guilt, and life purpose. Communication problems and rebuilding self-love are commonly addressed in her work.
Sessions focus on clear goals, skills to try between meetings, and checking progress together. People who value honest, collaborative conversation tend to find her approach helpful.
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Her work uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety and depression. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and homework to try between meetings to create small, measurable changes.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple awareness and breathing practices that reduce reactivity. Those skills can help with panic attacks, stress, and staying present when emotions run high.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods in session, and adjust the plan together based on what helps most. Clients are encouraged to voice what feels useful and what does not so the work stays practical and goal-focused.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or comfort on camera is an issue. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or getting support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work and family life.
