Daveisha Tanck , LCSW

Daveisha Tanck uses a client-centered approach to guide people through relationship and family concerns. She is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - based in North Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. Her manner is warm and relaxed, and she aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for people who are anxious or unsure.

She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and big life changes. Relationship and intimacy-related issues are a frequent focus, along with parenting challenges and family conflict. She also works with concerns such as low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, and feelings of emptiness.

In sessions she adapts the conversation and plan to each person’s needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness tools to help people notice patterns and try small, practical changes. Solution-focused techniques are used to set short-term goals and track progress.

Motivational interviewing is part of her toolbox when someone wants to build motivation for change. The aim is to support clear next steps, not to rush decisions. She also brings attention to attachment and family-of-origin dynamics when those patterns affect current relationships.

People can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental space where difficult topics are addressed directly but gently. Sessions may include talking through situations, practicing new communication skills, and learning simple mindfulness exercises to manage stress. The therapist tailors pacing and focus to each person’s goals and comfort level.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It involves listening carefully and shaping sessions around what the client says matters most, which is helpful for relationship and parenting concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when practical steps and skill-building are needed.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness practices to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions. Those skills can support coping with trauma, compassion fatigue, and everyday stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then try approaches together and adjust as needed. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy offers a range of formats: video calls for full sessions, phone sessions for lower bandwidth or when being on camera is not desired, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum on progress without needing to travel.
