About Tashira
Tashira Blume uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and LGBT-related concerns. She is identified by her MD and as an LCSW-C and brings four years of clinical work to each session. Her approach is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping people feel understood and more capable of coping with change.
She focuses on creating a calm space where people can say what they think and feel without judgment.
How Tashira works
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. Tashira helps clients break problems into small steps and build manageable routines for sleep, mood, and stress. Her work often centers on major life adjustments and the emotional fallout they can cause.
She helps people sort through confusing feelings after big changes and make practical plans to move forward. When trauma or past hurt is involved, she supports gradual processing at a pace the person can handle. Tashira also addresses low self-esteem and compassion fatigue.
She helps clients notice unhelpful self-talk and test kinder, more realistic ideas about themselves. For those exhausted by caring roles, she works on boundary-setting and small daily habits that restore energy. Therapy with Tashira can include talk-based exercises, structured problem solving, and skills practice between sessions.
She encourages steady progress and regular check-ins to adjust goals as needed.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches work online
Many clinicians use evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and skills. One common approach helps people learn coping skills for anxiety and stress through breathing, scheduling, and short behavioral experiments to test new ideas. Another approach emphasizes breaking big problems into smaller, manageable tasks to improve sleep, mood, and day-to-day functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the work and happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps most. That way the plan matches your needs, preferences, and pace.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you talk face to face for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, skills practice, or when typed communication feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
