About Tisela
She emphasizes a calm, open atmosphere where people can talk honestly about what they are feeling. Sessions center on practical coping skills and rediscovering personal strengths. Tisela helps clients build routines and strategies that fit daily life.
Her work draws on several approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports values-based choices and coping with difficult emotions.
Tisela also uses client-centered and narrative methods to understand each person’s story and priorities. Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. These methods are blended to match goals and pace.
She has helped people facing chronic illness, cancer, pain, and post-traumatic stress, and she addresses issues such as family of origin concerns, guilt and shame, isolation, and purpose. If you want a direct, compassionate professional who favors clear steps and real-life tools, this may be a good fit.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward a life that matters to you, which can be useful when adjusting to major changes or loss.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits, often helping with anxiety, depression, and stress.
Client-centered and narrative methods are also part of her work; these approaches let the person lead the conversation and make meaning from their story instead of following a strict agenda.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust as you go. This helps ensure methods match your pace and what you want to get from sessions.
