About Tashima
Tashima Kinney is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and codependency concerns. She connects everyday struggles to practical steps that can move a person forward. Her tone is warm and direct, and she invites people to take the first step toward change.
Kinney uses a flexible, person-centered style in sessions. She listens first, then helps clients map clear goals and small actions. Mindfulness tools are used to manage strong emotions and to bring attention to the present moment. Solution-focused techniques help identify what is already working and build from there.
With 13 years as an LPC and a longer history working in mental health settings, she draws on experience with trauma, addictions, grief, and family-related concerns. That background informs practical strategies for coping with life changes, parenting challenges, and issues around intimacy and trust. She also supports people facing multicultural stresses and identity questions.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, focused goal-setting, and short-term techniques alongside deeper trauma-informed work when needed. Kinney emphasizes collaboration - clients set priorities and she helps design steps to meet them. Her approach aims to be adaptable for a range of challenges, from ADHD and impulsivity to process addictions and anger.

How her approaches translate to online work
Tashima Kinney draws from client-centered and mindfulness-based methods to guide online sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation, useful for anxiety, trauma symptoms, and anger.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kinney works with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts pace and techniques based on feedback and progress, so the work stays practical and relevant.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and keeping work within a shorter break or between errands. Online work can also make it easier to use mindfulness practices between sessions and to bring real-life examples into discussion.
