About Felisha
Felisha Tillman is a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) in Tennessee with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and centers sessions on practical skills and clearer emotional understanding.
Her approach blends structured techniques with a person-centered attitude. She uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on learning tools for emotional regulation and improving communication.
Clients who come in feeling overwhelmed or exhausted by old patterns spend time tracking what keeps them in survival mode. The work often includes learning coping strategies, setting clearer boundaries, and practicing ways to respond instead of react. Felisha emphasizes concrete steps people can use between meetings.
She has experience in community mental health, crisis intervention, and integrated behavioral health. That background informs how she structures sessions and follows measurable goals. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Felisha helps people process trauma responses and reduce the hold of shame, guilt, and impulsivity. She also supports those dealing with substance use concerns, family problems, caregiver stress, and attachment issues. People leave with practical tools, clearer communication habits, and a plan for continued growth.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for reducing avoidance and for managing ongoing anger linked to stress and shame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that fuel reactivity and then practicing alternative responses. It is practical for temper at work or home and for lowering chronic worry. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful when anger leads to impulsive actions.Determining which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That conversation guides which methods are emphasized and how sessions are structured, and it remains collaborative throughout the process.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to attend during work breaks, reduce travel time, or use shorter check-ins when life is busy. Online work can also let the therapist and client practice skills in everyday settings and follow up on real-world progress between meetings.
