About me

I am licensed in Texas, Maine, and Oregon with 19 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, & bipolar disorder. I am a holistic therapist and work on helping you by finding ways to recover using skills of improving your Mind, Body, and Spirit. I also am very interested in hearing your story and finding the origins of the problems you are having. I have been a specialized trauma therapist and this helps me have insight into how the past can be healed in the present without pain or re-traumatization. I use DBT, CBT, and a person-centered approach to help you learn ways to recover. I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Tangela Isely. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Dr. Isely teaches me something about myself every time we talk. She has never made me feel as if I could not tell her EXACTLY how I am feeling. She not only responds to messages but checks in with me between appointments. She is always ready to send me a resource to practice the things we speak about. 11/10 would recommend. Especially for anyone transitioning from a PHP or IOP program.

Honestly I didn’t know how to explain how I felt but Dr. Isley knew exactly what I meant. Honestly one of the best therapist!!

I don’t know what or where I would be without her. She has changed my life by helping me see who I am and my potential. I don’t think I have ever had anyone I could share my true feelings and aspirations with. I am so thankful for God bringing her into my life❤️

Dr. Isly is an important part of taking care of my mental health. I am grateful for a therapist with great intellect and supreme compassion, who is also really good at her job. I plan to continue with Dr Isly for as long as she will have me.

I really appreciate how she reaches out to check in with me. Seems like she genuinely cares about my well being. Other therapist were not like this.
