About Tashinika

Tashinika Crowley is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and other life changes. She works in Mississippi and brings practical, down-to-earth methods to sessions. She uses straightforward talk, clear strategies, and a warm, respectful style.

Crowley earned a PhD in Social Work from Jackson State University in 2020, and a master’s degree in counseling from Mississippi College in 2013. She holds LPC licensure and has about 10 years of overall experience in counseling.

Background and approach

Her training includes several approaches that guide how she structures sessions. In sessions she often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts and actions and helps people try new ways of responding. She also draws on client-centered ideas that prioritize each person’s goals and perspective.

When helpful, she brings in psychodynamic and solution-focused techniques to understand patterns and build practical steps forward. Parents who are worried about mood, behavior, or family stress will find simple tools and concrete plans to try at home. Conversations are aimed at problem solving and small, achievable changes.

The style is direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on what can be tried between sessions. Her work covers a broad range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy questions, ADHD, bipolar-related challenges, and LGBT issues. She also supports people dealing with career stress and low self-esteem.

Crowley accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting each person’s goals. It creates space for people to talk about what matters most and helps shape sessions around personal priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and gives concrete skills to try between sessions. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration helps decide whether to emphasize CBT skills, client-centered listening, or add psychodynamic or solution-focused tools as appropriate.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person meetings, phone sessions offer a simpler option when video is not convenient, and live chat or text-based messaging provide ongoing support between scheduled talks. These choices allow flexibility for different schedules, comfort levels, and day-to-day demands, while keeping the focus on practical, consistent progress.

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.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
