What to Expect in Your First Session
Taking the first step with Online Therapy Texas should feel clear and predictable. Our first session is a collaborative meet and greet with a purpose. It is a dedicated space for us to look at the challenges that brought you here, discuss the background that shaped them, and define what real progress looks like for you. There is no pressure to perform; we move at your pace, and you remain in total control of what you choose to share.
There is no pressure to have everything figured out. For 50-minutes, we will move at your pace, and you remain in total control of what you choose to share. This initial time together allows us to identify your therapy goals and begin building a treatment approach that is specifically tailored to your life.
Think of this as an open conversation where you can ask questions about the process and ensure you feel respected and understood. My priority is to create an environment where you feel safe exploring your thoughts without judgment, so we can get clear on the path forward together.
Meet Tamesha | Compassionate Support for Life’s Unique Challenges
I believe that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all journey. My perspective is shaped by years of experience working alongside families navigating some of life’s most complicated systems. Having worked in community mental health, my practice was born out of a desire to provide a soft landing for those who often feel overlooked by traditional mental health spaces. With extensive experience supporting women navigating burnout, teens facing social and academic pressure, people within the ID/DD community, and families impacted by the justice system, I understand that your story is unique.
I’m here to help teens work through specific weight that comes with parental incarceration- the quiet grief, the stigma, and the shifting family dynamics. My approach isn’t about being a ‘strict authority’ or checking boxes; it’s about being a real person in your corner. Whether we are building your building your independence, setting boundaries, or navigating a major life transition, my focus is on your strengths. I’m here to help you filter out the noise of the systems around you so you can focus on who you want to be.
FAQ: Common Questions about Online Therapy Texas
It is completely normal to want to ensure your therapist ‘gets’ you before starting. The first 50 minutes are dedicated to building a foundation. It’s a thorough “get to know you” session where we walk through the practicalities—like confidentiality and logistics—while diving into the history that brought you here. I’ll ask a lot of questions about your background, your support system, and your medical history to help me understand the full picture.
Because we are gathering so much information to create your treatment plan, these initial sessions can sometimes feel emotionally intense or even a bit draining- that is a very normal part of the process. This is just as much for you as it is for me; it’s your opportunity to see if you feel heard, safe, and respected in our conversation. If at the end of our first session we realize the connection isn’t the right fit for your specific needs, I will provide referrals to other trusted mental health professionals to ensure you find the support you’re looking for.
Many clients are surprised by how quickly the ‘screen’ disappears. Telehealth offers a unique level of comfort—you (or your teen) can be in your own safe space, with your own pets or comforts nearby, which often leads to deeper breakthroughs. Research shows that online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions, with the added benefit of no commute and easier scheduling for busy Texas families.
I specialize in working with teens who might be skeptical or resistant. I don’t show up as an intimidating ‘authority figure’; I show up as a teammate. I meet teens where they are—whether that’s talking about their favorite game, their frustrations with school, or the heavy stuff they aren’t ready to tell anyone else. My goal is to build a relationship of trust first; the ‘work’ follows naturally once they feel seen and respected.
Absolutely. Your privacy is my top priority. I use a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform specifically designed for healthcare professionals. This is much more secure than standard platforms like FaceTime or Zoom. As long as you are in a private space on your end, our conversation remains completely confidential, just as it would be in a physical office.
