My name is Rasheda Long. I am an Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the state of AL and TN. I have been in mental health for 6 years. I started out as a school based therapist in Huntsville City Schools and God transitioned me to community mental health in Fayetteville, TN where I have worked 4.8 years. I currently do contract work while also supporting my private practice. I have worked with clients age 3 and up dealing with issues such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar/mood disorders, grief, familial issues, confidence/esteem issues, attachment, and more. I have used interventions to include CBT, TF-CBT, solution-focused therapy and more. I truly believe that everyone has at least one strength no matter how small it may seem. I strive to assist clients in being able to utilize this strength in navigating their mental health journey. Clients are the expert on their life and I work as the "assistant professor" to help them navigate it when they're unable to. With empathy, compassion, and straightforwardness, I look forward to working with you as we word towards your therapy goals.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
