Approaches and Online Support for Relationship and Anxiety Work

Tenisha Pettus uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with practical strategies to reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety and improve daily functioning. Motivational Interviewing is another approach she employs to help people clarify their goals and strengthen internal motivation for change, especially when facing ambivalence about treatment or behavioral shifts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tenisha works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made and circumstances change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals and therapists. Tenisha provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow clients to access support from home or between commitments. This range of options can make it easier to maintain consistency in care and to fit therapy into a busy life.
