Hi my name is Tasheena, I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC and am licensed in both West Virginia and South Carolina. I have a BA in Psychology from the University of Charleston and an MS in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I have experience providing individual and group therapy sessions to at-risk youth and their families within the court and corrections settings regarding substance use, behavioral issues, emotion regulation, relationships, communication, process addictions, and a variety of other issues depending on the client's needs.

I am certified to treat anxiety disorders, body-focused repetitive behaviors, worry, and panic. I have professional experience with anxiety disorders, depression, young adult issues, relationship issues, as well as domestic violence issues. I'm an advocate for healthy relationships, boundaries, and am passionate about self-care, personal and family growth, managing anxiety, and helping others grow in multiple areas of their lives. My therapeutic approach is eclectic but generally utilize solution-focused, CBT, and motivational interviewing. I value having sessions that include establishing rapport in an environment where clients can feel safe to be themselves without fear of judgment.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Tasheena is an absolutely stellar therapist. She takes the time to understand all my issues, asks extremely thought-provoking questions, sends amazing journal prompts, and gives me super useful feedback on whatever I have to discuss that week.

There’s really no adequate words to explain how amazing Tasheena is. She is incredibly good at what she does and she is full of compassion, empathy, understanding, and intelligence. She is encouraging, super accommodating of my crazy schedule, and always has excellent insight and feedback no matter what I throw at her (and it’s a lot). I feel like I’m talking to my best friend, but one who is totally committed to helping me the best version of myself, even when I forget my purpose in my anxiety filled brain. She is amazing. I am SO grateful for her- I can’t say enough great things about her and for this app for bringing her into my life, she is very important to my mental health stability and I really look forward to our sessions each week.

I don’t know if it’s luck or just an extremely good job but better help, but I have been perfectly matched with my therapist. She seems to understand the struggles of my profession and I would strongly encourage anyone in my field to talk to her!!

Reviewed August 2022

Tasheena was the perfect match for me. She was open and easy to talk to right off the bat; building real rapport from the start helped me gain so many insights through our conversations. She helped me in ways that are difficult to explain, but I feel more confident in myself, more self-assured about my own mind/decisions, and better equipped to deal with moments rife with anxiety. Therapy with Tasheena was an exercise in real growth and self-care; what a gift.

Tasheena is one of those people that you meet and are instantly comfortable around. She's everything the other reviews say and more. She's honest, she's genuine, and her immense intellect continues to impress me each week. Without knowing it she saved and forever changed my life. With her help, I am not the same man that I was when I started therapy. I now have a much better grasp on life and relationships and know how to put in the work to continue to become a more healthy person. I hope to one day take these teachings and help others. So Tasheena, you're the best therapist there ever will be and one of the best people I've ever met. You're 1 in 7.9 billion. From the bottom of my heart.. THANK YOU for everything.
