About Tenisha

Hello, and welcome. I am a licensed clinical psychologist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion, insight, and practical support. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, life transitions, self-esteem difficulties, and trauma.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based cognitive and behavioral therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). I help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns, build healthier coping strategies, increase emotional regulation, and develop skills to create meaningful and lasting change.

I believe therapy should be a collaborative and supportive process tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. Whether you are facing a difficult life transition, struggling with emotional challenges, or simply seeking personal growth, I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, supported, and empowered.

I look forward to working with you on your journey toward greater well-being and resilience.
