Background and approach
She listens closely and helps people spot patterns that keep them stuck. Together they set small, doable goals and try simple strategies to change thoughts and behaviors. Sessions focus on what will make daily life easier and more manageable.
Her background includes a Master of Science in Social Work and a business master's with a health care emphasis. Tia has offered therapy in a range of settings and has nearly three decades of experience. That breadth helps her tailor support to different life stages and challenges.
Tia draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She also uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques when helpful. These methods provide both short-term problem solving and deeper work on values and coping.
People who choose her can expect warm, attentive listening and clear next steps after each visit. Tia encourages practical experiments between sessions so progress can be tested in daily life. Her style is steady, empathetic, and goal-minded.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Tia often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and then focus on what matters most to them. ACT works well for stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions by pairing mindful awareness with actions that match personal values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another common tool she uses to identify patterns of thinking that increase distress. CBT offers concrete steps to change unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood over weeks.
Client-Centered Therapy provides a supportive space where the person leads the pace of change while the therapist offers empathetic listening and reflection. This approach helps when someone needs understanding and steady support to work through tough emotions.
Tia approaches treatment collaboratively, so finding the right method is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as needed based on what feels useful.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to get consistent help around work, childcare, or travel schedules.
