Tanisha is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Nevada, practicing since 2023. She holds a Master of Social Work from the University of Nevada, Reno and a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Her clinical work spans children, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds, with a focus on anxiety, depression, and ADHD.
Her Approach
Tanisha works with clients across the lifespan, from children as young as six through older adults, including those navigating life transitions, school challenges, parenting stress, and grief. Her clients often describe feeling like they are constantly falling behind, caught in cycles of overthinking, procrastination, and people-pleasing that leave them mentally exhausted. She connects well with clients who are curious about themselves and open to trying new strategies.
Sessions with Tanisha are practical and collaborative. She draws from CBT, person-centered therapy, and strengths-based interventions, weaving in psychoeducation and mindfulness to help clients build lasting coping skills for depression and ADHD alongside anxiety. Clients who work with her often describe her as down-to-earth and easy to talk to, someone who listens without rushing to fix. Her style balances structured skill-building with room for deeper emotional processing, adjusted to what each client needs.
