About Tarsha
Tarsha Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage anxiety and related concerns. She focuses on practical steps that ease day-to-day stress and restore steady routines. Her approach is warm and respectful, and she aims to help clients feel heard and understood right away.
She frames sessions around each person’s goals while encouraging self-determination. That means clients help set priorities and choose the pace of work. Tarsha listens for strengths and barriers and uses those observations to shape short-term plans.
Background and approach
Her background includes an undergraduate degree in social work from Herbert Lehman College in Bronx, New York. Early in her training she learned relationship principles that still guide her work, such as acceptance, nonjudgment, and allowing people to express their feelings. Those ideas show up every session in simple, direct ways.
Tarsha has eight years as a licensed counselor and many more years in social services roles working with adults, families, and children. She draws on that experience to help people dealing with trauma, grief, parenting stress, mood concerns, and issues with control or impulsivity. In practical terms she uses methods that invite collaboration and problem solving.
That can look like setting small goals, practicing new ways of thinking, or learning skills for handling intense emotions. The work is straightforward and aimed at helping people function better at home, work, and in relationships.
How therapy approaches shape online care
Tarsha blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy to help people manage symptoms and change unhelpful thinking. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and building a trusting relationship so clients can set their own goals and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tarsha will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. She treats that choice as collaborative and adjusts techniques based on what helps most in real life.
Online sessions make that collaboration flexible. Video calls let people keep visual contact for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or ongoing prompts between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, school, or family routines and make it simpler to continue steady progress.
