How Tanisha’s Approaches Work Online

Tanisha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people manage stress and anxiety. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-life experiments, which can reduce worry and improve mood. DBT offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships when feelings feel overwhelming.

She also uses motivational interviewing to help people connect with their own reasons for change. The therapist and client work together to choose which approach fits best. That choice is revisited over time based on goals, progress, and what feels most useful.

The original biography lists phone, chat, and video sessions as options, so confirm the available formats when you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find it simpler to schedule evenings or weekend appointments this way. Talk with the therapist about which approach and session rhythm will work best for your situation.
