How her approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how people connect to others. It looks at patterns from important relationships and helps people build more supported ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person's experience in the moment. The therapist listens without judgment and follows what matters most to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change reactions and behaviors.Tikishia treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, needs, and what feels most comfortable. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers different ways to meet depending on what fits a person's life. Video calls let conversations feel more like an in-person visit. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn't wanted. Live chat and text messaging are good for quick check-ins, brief updates, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and work on goals from wherever someone is located.
