How Tamika works
Tamika uses tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She blends these approaches to match each person’s goals and situation. Sessions often include skills practice, problem-solving, and conversations about feelings and patterns.
Over the years she has helped people manage mood disorders such as bipolar disorder, cope with major life transitions, and address attachment or communication issues. She also works with concerns like abandonment, adoption and foster care challenges, caregiver stress, and adjustment after medical events such as cancer. Tamika offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.
She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on therapist availability.

Online support options
Online approaches that focus on skills and emotion
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with stressful situations. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. It is useful when strong emotions or patterns of reactivity get in the way of daily life. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, centers on understanding and naming emotions to change how people connect and respond to their own feelings and to others.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tamika will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences, and together they decide which tools to try first. She mixes techniques when useful and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when someone wants to write through a problem. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules while still working on skills and emotional growth.
