About Tunjua

Tunjua Nathaniel is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 26 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, anger, and major life changes. She also supports those coping with trauma, grief, addiction concerns, parenting strain, and issues related to identity and intimacy.

She uses straightforward, practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on clear skills and small experiments to test new ways of reacting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of the work she draws on to shift thinking patterns that fuel anxiety, low mood, and relationship conflict.

Nathaniel also uses client-centered techniques to keep sessions focused on each person’s experience. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools appear when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. EMDR may be included for people processing traumatic memories, and emotionally focused ideas guide work on closer relationships.

Her approach emphasizes concrete strategies - communication skills, coping plans, and step-by-step behavior changes. She helps people break down big problems into manageable steps and track what works. Sessions often combine talking with targeted exercises to practice between meetings.

People looking to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and use a cancel-anytime subscription model. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

People can expect a practical mix of methods that emphasize skills and measurable change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting automatic thoughts and testing new responses through small behavioral experiments. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and relationship patterns where thought habits fuel distress.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience, with the therapist reflecting concerns and clarifying goals so the work stays relevant. This approach helps people feel understood while deciding what changes to try next. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete tools for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance when reactions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will review goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust as progress and needs become clearer. Clients and the therapist choose skills and exercises together rather than following a fixed prescription.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the currently offered options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow brief check-ins during a workday, or enable sessions when travel is difficult. Licensed professionals adapt activities so exercises and skill practice translate to the client’s everyday routines.
