About Felisha

Felisha Tillman is a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She offers a warm and direct approach that focuses on building safety and trust. Many clients come when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted from carrying heavy emotions alone.

Her style balances structure with compassion. Sessions look at patterns that keep someone in survival mode and teach practical skills for coping and communicating. She combines tools from cognitive behavioral approaches, dialectical behavior ideas, acceptance and commitment work, and emotionally focused methods.

Felisha emphasizes emotional safety, cultural humility, and a non-judgmental relationship. She sets clear goals and tracks measurable progress so people know how therapy is helping. The therapist also offers trauma-responsive care and space to process difficult experiences at a pace that fits each person.

Her background includes eight years in community mental health, crisis intervention, and integrated behavioral health settings. That experience informs a pragmatic approach to symptoms like panic, numbness, grief, and problems with impulse control.

In sessions clients learn skills to regulate their nervous system, set healthier boundaries, and improve communication. The work aims to move people from surviving day-to-day to living with more clarity, purpose, and emotional resilience. To begin, a person can complete the initial matching steps and schedule according to availability.

Approaches used in online therapy and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It supports values-based action so someone can move toward a life they care about despite painful emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to build practical tools for anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when impulsivity or intense reactions are a problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a joint process that may combine elements from different approaches over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fit into a busy schedule and fewer barriers to getting consistent care. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep appointments during work breaks, on caregiving days, or when travel is difficult. Because formats are not listed here, confirm the specific session options before booking so they match your routine and needs.
