Tarisha McCullen, LCSW

Tarisha McCullen is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina. She brings eight years of psychotherapy experience and a caring, nonjudgmental attitude to sessions. Her aim is to help people regain balance so they can live and love their lives more fully.

Tarisha focuses on common concerns like depression, anxiety, and ADHD, and she also supports people facing low self-esteem, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress. She works with everyday challenges too, such as stress, anger, relationship and family problems, and difficulties with communication.

She approaches each person with respect and compassion. Tarisha says it is important to meet clients where they are and tailor counseling to individual needs. Sessions are practical and aim to address what is causing struggle now.

Her background includes work with emotional abuse, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver strain, and symptoms related to disruptive mood dysregulation and trichotillomania. She also lists experience with veteran and armed forces issues, postpartum depression, and young adult concerns.

Tarisha welcomes English-speaking clients and accepts international clients. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling follows the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online support

Tarisha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common concerns. One approach focuses on managing mood and anxiety symptoms through practical coping skills and step-by-step problem solving; this helps with panic, ongoing worry, and the ups and downs of mood disorders. Another approach concentrates on improving relationships and communication by helping people notice patterns, practice new ways of speaking, and set clearer boundaries to reduce conflict.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Tarisha will work with each person to identify which approaches match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. She adjusts methods over time as progress or new challenges appear so therapy stays relevant and useful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats with the therapist before booking because specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make regular sessions easier to fit into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to focus on symptom management, relationship skills, and coping strategies in ways that fit into everyday life.
