Tarsha Washington

Tarsha Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people handle anger and related concerns. She supports those dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and parenting strains. Her approach aims to help people feel heard and regain control over daily life.

She creates a person-centered space where self-determination is encouraged. Conversations focus on real problems and practical steps. Sessions emphasize warmth, respect, and a nonjudgmental attitude to make it easier to talk about hard things.

Tarsha draws on ideas from social work and counseling to guide her interactions. She values recognizing each person as an individual and encourages expressing feelings openly. This helps people see their strengths and take realistic steps toward change.

Her work also addresses communication problems, control issues, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation. She helps people work through relationship difficulties, career stress, and questions about life purpose. Mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and depression are listed among her focus areas.

Tarsha uses practical approaches to help people learn new skills and manage emotions. She pays attention to how barriers at home, school, work, or in the community affect daily functioning. The aim is to support people in reaching goals they set for themselves.

With eight years as an LPC and broad social services experience, she combines counseling methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy with real-world understanding. This mix shapes sessions that are goal-focused and respectful of each person’s pace and choices.

Approaches that guide online work and coping skills

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on treating the person with respect and positive regard. It asks the therapist to listen closely, reflect feelings, and help people set their own goals, which can ease anger, low self-esteem, and relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It helps people identify unhelpful thinking, practice different responses, and try concrete behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences. This means approaches can be adjusted as work progresses so therapy stays useful and practical.

If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the exact session options before booking. When available, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. It also lets people continue momentum between in-person commitments and practice skills in everyday life without requiring a physical commute.
