About Tasheena
Tasheena Donell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and parenting challenges. She keeps language simple and practical so parents can read quickly and know what to expect. Tasheena focuses on clear goals and steps that fit busy family life.
She draws on solution-focused ideas to set short-term goals and on cognitive behavioral techniques to examine thoughts that feed anxiety and low mood.
Background and approach
Motivational interviewing is part of her work when people want to change habits around substance use or other behaviors. Sessions center on understanding the person first, then building a plan together. Tasheena earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Charleston and a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University.
She has five years of experience offering individual and group counseling in settings that included court and corrections. That work involved substance use, behavior concerns, emotion regulation, and communication skills. Her practice emphasizes building trust and practical coping skills.
She encourages parents to try small experiments at home and to report back on what worked. She also pays attention to burnout and compassion fatigue among people who carry heavy caregiving responsibilities. Tasheena is licensed in West Virginia, South Carolina, and Washington state.
She offers therapy in English and works with international clients when schedules align.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the person's perspective and building trust. It helps people feel heard and encourages them to explore concerns at their own pace, which can ease anxiety and strengthen motivation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to reduce worry, change unhelpful thinking patterns, and try new behaviors that improve mood and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and life circumstances. Together they try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter, asynchronous check-ins and can fit into breaks or busy parenting schedules. These options make it easier to keep continuity and build skills over time.
