Hi there, I'm Tasha! Do you identify with a marginalized population and feel disconnected from the people around you? I am passionate about supporting those who feel isolated and unsupported.

My approach I utilize a variety of modalities in my practice, dependent upon my clients' individual needs. In particular, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, dialectical behavioral therapy, strengths-based, and solution-focused strategies I implemented. The Gottman method and emotionally focused therapy techniques are used with couples. In addition, I am in the process of exploring other modalities through education to better support my clients My focus I empower women, children, couples, families, and those who identify as LGBTQ+. Thus, I enjoy working with individuals of all ages from diverse backgrounds. I have worked with children with neurodivergence in the home, office, and school settings. Also, I have facilitated therapy with families and couples. I have experience working with medically fragile patients. In addition, I was previously employed in a maternal-child program. My communication style I encourage open and honest communication in my client relationships. I am very calm and patient in meeting my clients where they are at in the change process. Active listening and compassion are demonstrated in each session to validate each of my clients' experiences. My journey to mental healthcare I have personally experienced a number of challenges throughout my life. I managed to overcome them with the support of therapy. Therefore, I have chosen to take on this role to be of assistance to individuals who may not have such support in their inner circle.
