About Tabatha

Tabatha Bassey is a licensed social worker in Michigan with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are coping with trauma, depression, major life changes, or parenting stress. She also supports those facing compassion fatigue and related challenges. Her approach centers on listening, practical steps, and steady support.

Tabatha believes clients know their own stories and brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions. She aims to make progress feel achievable with clear, manageable goals. Conversations focus on what is most important right now and on small changes that add up.

Her work has included many trauma-related concerns such as post-traumatic stress, domestic violence, and abuse recovery. She also addresses issues linked to adoption and foster care, attachment worries, and abandonment. Clinically she has supported people coping with addiction, self-harm, isolation, and caregiver stress.

Tabatha draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people process painful events and build more effective daily routines. She helps parents tackle difficult moments and supports people finding purpose after loss or change. Sessions aim to increase coping skills and reduce overwhelming moments.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Services are provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Tabatha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on processing trauma and strengthening daily coping. One common approach helps people gently process painful memories and reduce their intensity through structured conversation and grounding exercises. This can be useful for post-traumatic stress, abuse recovery, and other trauma-related concerns.

Another set of techniques targets mood and behavior by identifying unhelpful patterns and testing new ways of responding. These practical strategies help with depression, low motivation, and managing tough days by breaking problems into smaller steps and tracking progress.

Picking the right approach is part of the work together. Tabatha will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. She adapts techniques over time based on what is working and what needs to change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflections. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations, while keeping the focus on practical progress.
