Hi there, I'm Tantenisha!

I graduated from Pace University with my Master’s Degree as a Licensed Mental health Therapist and Substance Abuse Counselor. I have experience working with individuals struggling with negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, substance use, challenging irrational beliefs, anxiety, history of trauma, and identity development. I believe in the importance of collaboration, so forging a Therapeutic Alliance is important as it allows for trust and deeper therapeutic work to occur which will allow the individual to reach their goals effectively. This allows the individual to see, feel, and understand that as a therapist, my values and morals are not important, the only thing that is of importance is what is impacting you as an Individual from fulfilling the goals and changes that are important to you. I will help and teach you how to celebrate the milestones, as well as the slip-ups. We all can learn from a slip-up, after all, it is not how you fall, but how you get back up. My goal as a therapist is to help you reach a point of strength, empowerment, self-love, self-forgiveness, love who you are, develop coping skills, and acceptance in a safe and nurturing environment.
