About Felisha
Felisha Tillman is a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) practicing in Tennessee with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Sessions are presented in a straightforward, trauma-aware way that focuses on clear goals and practical skills.
Felisha helps clients identify the patterns that keep them stuck. She combines emotion-focused work with practical tools so people can notice feelings and take manageable steps. Expect a mix of talk, skill-building, and attention to how emotions shape behavior.
Her background includes community mental health, crisis intervention, and integrated behavioral health settings. That experience informs how she structures sessions, balances safety, and responds to intense moments. She aims to make progress measurable through concrete goals and check-ins.
Clients may practice new coping strategies between sessions. Felisha uses approaches such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). These methods are used to address emotion regulation, communication patterns, and coping with traumatic memories.
Work in therapy includes building emotional understanding, practicing communication skills, and creating steps to reduce overwhelm. Felisha values cultural humility and a nonjudgmental attitude while helping clients set and review achievable steps toward feeling more steady.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Felisha uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people name and work with painful emotions and attachment patterns. EFT emphasizes making feelings clearer and connecting those feelings to current behavior, which can help with anxiety, abandonment concerns, and emotion-driven reactions.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice thoughts and values, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to teach concrete skills for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. ACT focuses on values-guided action and willingness to experience difficult thoughts, while CBT offers step-by-step techniques for managing symptoms like worry or low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches as needed.
Session-format details are not listed here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or make it simpler to maintain regular appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt EFT, ACT, and CBT techniques to remote sessions so clients can practice skills, process emotions, and check progress between meetings.
