About Tasheena

Tasheena Donell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction struggles, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and depression. She also supports people coping with family and parenting challenges, anger, career changes, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Tasheena works in a straightforward, calm way to help people take practical steps forward.

She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Charleston and a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. Tasheena holds LPC and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) credentials and has five years of clinical experience. She has worked in court and corrections settings providing individual and group therapy for at-risk youth and adults around substance use, behavior concerns, emotion regulation, and communication problems.

Her approach draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. Sessions focus on building rapport, identifying small workable goals, and practicing skills that reduce worry and improve day-to-day functioning. Tasheena places emphasis on healthy boundaries, self-care, and personal growth.

She has experience with issues such as domestic violence, process addictions, dissociation, codependency, infidelity, and impulsivity, and she addresses related feelings like guilt, shame, and isolation. Tasheena aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly about what’s happening in their lives.

People considering work with her are encouraged to think about the immediate problems they want to change and the practical steps they want to try. Tasheena collaborates on goals and tailors techniques to each person’s needs and circumstances.

How Tasheena’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a warm, nonjudgmental space so people can state what matters most. It helps when someone needs acceptance and a chance to make sense of feelings before choosing next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches skills to change patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. It can be useful for worry, panic, and problem behaviors because it offers concrete tools to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tasheena will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts techniques over time based on what is helping and what isn’t.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know how she is meeting with clients. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also help people continue care while living in different places, including international locations. The focus remains on clear goals, practical strategies, and steady progress rather than on the setting where sessions happen.
