How Tiaira works
She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy when clients need concrete, faster changes. These approaches are used to help people manage emotions, rebuild routines, and make decisions that fit their goals. Her caseload often includes those dealing with anger, parenting challenges, communication problems, and life transitions such as divorce or separation.
She also works with people facing domestic violence aftermath, substance issues, obsessive thoughts, social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. Sessions may focus on coping tools, communication practice, and step-by-step problem solving. Tiaira describes her strengths as being open-minded, attentive, and empathetic.
She aims to create a space where people feel heard and can try new ways of handling old problems. Her background includes a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, earned in 2018, and licensure in Louisiana and Texas as an LPC. Outside of clinical work she spends time with her husband and loved ones.
She views therapy as a collaborative process and invites people who are ready to make changes to take the next step toward clearer goals and improved daily functioning.

How Tiaira’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship, letting the person lead while the therapist follows and reflects back what matters most. It helps when someone needs a calm space to talk through feelings and make decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this approach often helps with anxiety, depression, and obsessive thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, such as distress tolerance and emotion regulation.Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk about goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust plans based on what works. Clients and therapist check in regularly to shape the path forward together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues and face-to-face conversation matter. Phone sessions can be good when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t convenient. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules, work breaks, or when someone needs regular short touchpoints rather than longer in-person visits.
