About Delishia
She uses client-centered work to focus sessions on what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used when thoughts and habits get in the way of feeling better. Mindfulness practices are woven in to help people notice the present moment and reduce stress.
Delishia spent nearly seven years working with a hospice provider. That role involved supporting people facing major life transitions and those who care for them. Her graduate training included a focus on gerontology and the changes people face as they age, so she understands concerns that come up in later life.
Over 15 years of practice she has helped people with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, caregiver stress, addictions, and questions about life purpose. She also works with issues like abandonment, attachment, body image, and self-esteem. Sessions aim to be compassionate and practical so people can try new ways of coping between visits.
Clients can expect a therapist who listens without judgment and helps build steady steps toward feeling better. She encourages people to bring what matters most to them and to move at a pace that feels right.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Delishia draws on Client-Centered Therapy to make sessions about the person in front of her, listening closely and following each person's priorities. This approach helps when someone needs a safe space to sort through feelings and make decisions about life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviors and trying small experiments to change them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep struggles, and some anger or stress patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Delishia collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Some people find brief check-ins easier when they need to fit a visit into a lunch break, while others use longer appointments for deeper work. Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking so you know what will work best for your routine.
