Teneisha Parker-Abrams, LCSW — Therapist in Nevada

Hi there, I'm Teneisha!

I provide therapy for children and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, anger, relationship difficulties, and trauma. I'm passionate about empowering you and helping you achieve your goals by focusing on your strengths. I look forward to working together, helping you become a better you.

My focus

I work with people struggling with anxiety and uncontrollable worry, depression, trauma, and those who need a judgment-free space. I actively listen while equipping you with skills to cope with current stressors and improve your mood. You'll find unconditional support as we work together.

My approach

I use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you process trauma and develop healthy coping strategies. Through Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, you'll gain emotion regulation skills. With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, you'll identify cognitive distortions and learn tools to reach your highest potential.

My communication style

I provide active listening, empathy, and support to ensure you feel comfortable. You'll have an open space to discuss anything bothering you while always receiving unconditional support.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey in therapy began with my desire to help others reach their goals. I'm a good listener and very down-to-earth. I always make people feel comfortable, and my purpose is to see others experience positive growth and change.

My goals for you

I help you reach your goals by listening to what you'd like to work on. We'll establish a treatment plan designed specifically for your needs and desires. I'll provide the support you need to reach your highest potential in this trusting partnership.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I'll learn about your background and current challenges while creating a comfortable space for you to share openly. Together, we'll begin building a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.
