Tarsha Washington, LPC

Tarsha Washington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people move through trauma, family stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. She focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life feel more manageable. Sessions aim to boost self-esteem, improve communication, and address grief, parenting concerns, and career stress.

Tarsha creates a person-centered space where clients set goals and make choices about their care. Her style is warm and respectful, and she encourages people to express feelings without judgment. She emphasizes self-determination so each person can take realistic steps toward change.

She draws on principles from social work that stress seeing each person as an individual. Those principles guide how she listens, responds, and supports people as they work through issues like control problems, forgiveness, guilt, shame, and impulsivity. Tarsha pays attention to strengths while helping clients face barriers that get in the way.

With eight years as a Licensed Professional Counselor and longer experience in social services roles, she brings a background of working in community settings. That experience informs practical problem-solving for relationship issues, mood disorders, ADHD, and post-traumatic stress concerns.

Tarsha meets people where they are and helps them build skills for coping with life changes, reducing isolation, and finding purpose. She works collaboratively to identify small, steady steps that lead to better daily functioning.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and helping people make their own choices. It is useful when someone needs a supportive space to talk through feelings and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence actions and mood, and it helps with anxiety, depression, and many daily-life problems by teaching practical skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That may mean blending client-centered support with skill-based CBT or adding DBT strategies for emotion regulation. The choice is shaped by what the person needs and wants to try.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, and offering more scheduling flexibility. These practical benefits can help people maintain consistency in their care and use therapy tools when they are needed most.
