About Takindra
Takindra Worles is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Tennessee who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She uses clear, direct methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions.

She blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to match what each person needs.
How Takindra works
Sessions focus on concrete skills - like calming strategies, problem solving, and communication techniques - that people can use between appointments. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to support people working through changes related to substance use or motivation shifts. Takindra has nine years of experience in behavioral health in Tennessee.
That background includes helping people cope with abandonment, impulsivity, isolation, family problems, and mood disorders. She is familiar with challenges tied to trauma, grief, and adjusting to major life events. In sessions she prioritizes respect and direct collaboration.
Conversations are practical and goal-oriented, and she works with clients to set small, measurable steps. Progress is tracked in simple ways so people can see what is helping. Therapy is offered through multiple online formats to fit different schedules and needs.
Takindra communicates in English and draws on a range of approaches to help each person move toward clearer choices and steadier days.

How Takindra’s approach fits online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to what matters to the person and shaping sessions around their priorities. It helps people feel heard and makes it easier to set goals that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing mood swings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when emotions run high.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions start with discussing priorities and trying techniques that can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow fuller conversations and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break, live chat lets people check in quickly, and text-based messaging supports brief updates or ongoing skill practice. These options offer flexibility so therapy can match different schedules and communication styles.
