About Tiniya
Tiniya Bolden is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with seven years of clinical experience. She earned a Master of Social Work from Silberman School of Social Work in 2014 and practices from New York. Tiniya emphasizes a direct, respectful approach and values the relationship she builds with each person she sees.
She aims to create a space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and related concerns. Her background includes work in supportive housing and community settings addressing issues such as substance use, mood disorders, and experiences of abuse.
Background and approach
She focuses on clear listening and practical conversation rather than judgment. Tiniya uses approaches that center the person and their goals. She draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, and solution-focused strategies to help people identify small, manageable changes.
Motivational interviewing and narrative work also appear in her practice to support shifts in thinking and behavior. Sessions may address parenting stress, workplace strain, panic and mood symptoms, problems with impulsivity, and questions about life purpose or money. She has experience with young adult issues, post-traumatic stress, domestic violence, and the stresses that follow major life changes.
Tiniya aims to help people find clearer next steps. Her work style is open-minded and nonjudgmental. She checks messages throughout the day and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
People who want practical, collaborative support and a straightforward conversation often find her approach helpful.
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and priorities. It involves open listening and reflecting what matters to the client, which helps tools and goals feel personally relevant and reachable.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, mood symptoms, and stress because it offers concrete skills to practice between sessions.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful for addressing ambivalence around substance use, lifestyle shifts, or other goals by supporting personal motivation and small achievable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit, and adjust as needed. This is a collaborative process where the client’s preferences guide which techniques are emphasized.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people work face to face when conversation and visual cues help. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, shorter updates, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to keep progress moving despite a busy life.
