Background and approach
Tanisha has worked with people from many backgrounds, including those facing life transitions, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. Her practice includes supporting people managing anger, career challenges, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Tanisha has experience with intellectual and developmental disabilities and with physical disabilities.
She helps individuals and family members understand diagnoses, improve social skills, and cope with related stress. She also supports people navigating caregiving roles, chronic illness, and end-of-life concerns. Her style is person-centered and solution-focused.
Sessions are practical and goal oriented, breaking problems into small steps and building on strengths. Tanisha offers late evening and Saturday daytime hours to fit nonstandard schedules. She provides help through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their needs.
Solution-Focused Care Online
Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical changes that move a person toward their goals. Sessions emphasize existing strengths and concrete steps rather than long reviews of the past; this can help with anxiety, stress, life adjustments, and relationship concerns.Tanisha pairs solution-focused methods with a person-centered stance, which means she listens first and builds plans with each person. She will work collaboratively to find the right mix of approaches based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing one method from the start.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and fit a break at work, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around evening and weekend hours and to maintain continuity when life is busy.
