Getting to know Tenecia Bullock-Funches
Welcome! My name is Tenecia Funches, and I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and confidence. As a therapist, I believe that healing happens in a safe, supportive environment—one where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment or pressure. My goal is to create that space for every person I work with.
My background spans a variety of clinical and real-world experiences that allow me to connect with clients on a genuine and practical level. I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse populations, including individuals facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, trauma, and major life transitions. These experiences have strengthened my belief that every person’s story matters and that meaningful change is possible with the right support.

These experiences have strengthened my belief that every person’s story matters and that meaningful change is possible with the right support.
My therapy style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empowerment. I understand that therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I take the time to get to know you—your strengths, your struggles, and your goals. I use a blend of evidence-based approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, strengths-based work, and solution-focused techniques. This integrative style allows me to tailor sessions to your needs while helping you develop practical tools you can use outside the therapy room.
I value honesty, authenticity, and real conversation. While therapy can involve deep exploration, it can also include humor, reflection, and moments of encouragement. My clients often describe me as approachable, down-to-earth, and someone who genuinely listens without making them feel dismissed or misunderstood. I believe in meeting you where you are—emotionally, mentally, and even energetically—while walking with you toward where you want to be.
As a working mother and a woman balancing multiple roles, I also appreciate the complexities of managing stress, identity, self-care, and personal growth in everyday life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
