About Tamekia
How these approaches guide online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person’s experience and following their lead in sessions. It helps when someone needs a listening space to make sense of changes and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety or improve mood. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck and want help finding internal reasons to change, which can be useful for addictions or life transitions. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That conversation shapes whether more CBT skills, motivational strategies, trauma-focused steps, or a client-centered pace will be used. Please confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - appointments can be scheduled around work, caregiving, or school commitments. Some formats are better for brief check-ins, while others allow full sessions with exercises and reflection. Discussing practical needs when scheduling helps pick the best way to meet regularly and keep progress moving.Areas of expertise
