Tarsha Washington
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I have been actively providing Therapy Services since the year 2015, however I collaboratively have over 18 years of experience in my many roles within the Social Services field working with adults, families and children. I will operate with the intention to support and empower individuals to reach their desired goals. I provide a person centered environment, in which self- determination is encouraged, modeled and commended. I engage others with warmth, respect and positive regard. I received my undergrad degree in Social Work at Herbert Lehman College located in Bronx, New York, which was where I was introduced to the Social Work Relationship Principles of Felix Biestek. The late Felix Biestek, a Priest, Professor and Author of The Casework Relationship. Chicago: Loyola, 1957, developed 7 Social Work Principles and the following principles sets the standard for my purposeful interactions with others: (1) Individualism- Recognizing that each youth has his/her own unique qualities. (2)Purposeful Expression of Feelings- Recognizing the persons’ need to express his/her feelings freely. (3)Controlled Emotional Involvement- Sensitivity to a person’s feelings and having an appropriate response. (4)Acceptance – Seeing the person where he/she is at including strengths and weaknesses, so that the person can feel safe to reveal him/herself and have self -awareness. This will help the person take a realistic approach to deal with barriers. (5)Non Judgmental Attitude – Not making someone feel guilty or persecuted because of their situation and/or problem. (6)Self- Determination – The right and the need for one to freely be involved in making their own choices and decisions in the helping process. (7)Confidentiality- Is a person’s right! Confidentiality is broken only when the person signs a statement for release of information to others, the court orders confidential records, or when the person is in danger to himself or others. I will operate in your best interest, in an effort to understand any/all barriers that may be causing a disruption in the home, at school, at work as well as in the community that impairs your social functioning.

Admitting you need help is hard to do! We all want to be able to go through this life and never need to ask someone else to help us. However, asking for help does not mean you are weak. I believe it actually means you are strong! It takes a strong person to say, "I cannot do this on my own." That is where I can help. Whether it be individual issues that arise, issues in your marriage, with your children, or in your whole family, I can help to find new ways of thinking and understanding one another. I have over 9 years of clinical experience and employ a Solution Focused and Narrative approach in the therapy room. I want to hear your story, and I want to help find solutions to the issues you bring into the room. Together we can find new ways of thinking and interacting with others in our lives. Making that first move to seek out therapy is a big step, and I am proud of you for being so brave to do so. I would love to hear from you so that we may begin walking together in your healing journey.
