About Tasha

Tasha Boone is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina. She focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and grief. Her style is warm and respectful, aimed at practical conversations parents can use at home.

She emphasizes sensitivity and compassion while helping people take the first steps toward change. Tasha uses clear, goal-focused work rather than lengthy jargon.

Background and approach

She listens first, then helps shape a plan that fits each person's circumstances. That plan can include short-term coping skills or longer-term skill-building, depending on the situation. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.

She also uses client-centered techniques that keep the client's priorities front and center. Dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness practices often show up when emotional regulation and stress tolerance are needed. Tasha has seven years of experience as an LCMHC in North Carolina and has worked widely in the mental health field.

She also brings experience addressing adoption and foster care matters, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She aims to make therapy practical for daily family life. When parents are unsure where to begin, she helps break problems into small, manageable steps.

Conversations focus on immediate needs like sleep, behavior, and routines, plus longer-term goals such as rebuilding trust and improving relationships. The tone in sessions is straightforward, supportive, and collaborative.

Approaches that translate well to online family care

Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the parent's or person's priorities and goals, allowing sessions to follow what matters most in family life. This approach helps when clients need practical solutions that fit daily routines.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that get in the way of family functioning. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep problems because it teaches concrete skills to try between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, brings skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These techniques can be helpful for intense emotions, impulsivity, or repeated conflict within relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works for the family or individual. That ongoing collaboration helps match methods to real-life needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. It can make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, or caregiving duties. Those formats also let parents practice new skills in their home environment and check in between appointments when brief support is helpful.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
