Approaches Tanisha names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Using practical approaches in online therapy

Tanisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT focuses on clear skills and homework-style practice that can reduce anxiety and improve mood over weeks to months.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for people coping with past trauma. EMDR involves guided processing of traumatic memories to reduce their emotional intensity, often alongside careful pacing and safety planning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, then try approaches that fit each person. Adjustments are made over time so the plan matches progress and comfort level.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face for in-depth sessions. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice, and follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to get consistent care around work, school, or a busy schedule.
