About Tesia

Tesia Wells is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of clinical experience. She offers straightforward, practical care for people feeling overwhelmed by anger, anxiety, grief, or relationship strain. Tesia writes and talks plainly in sessions so clients can use what they learn right away.

Tesia uses several well-established approaches to help people understand what drives their feelings and reactions. She draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person.

Background and approach

She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking and try out new behavior. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas help people make sense of patterns that repeat across their lives. People come to Tesia for help with anger, stress, depression, sleep and eating concerns, addictions, intimacy issues, or problems tied to family of origin and fatherhood.

She also addresses trauma, sexual assault, LGBT issues, money worries, and multicultural concerns. Her practice emphasizes practical skills - breathing, boundaries, thought tracking, and communication - that can be used between sessions. Tesia offers sessions from New York and works with clients in English.

She accepts international clients. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs. The format is chosen to match what the client prefers and what will help them make steady progress.

Her approach is collaborative and nonjudgmental. Tesia helps people set clear goals, track small wins, and build skills for coping with life changes and improving relationships.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

Approaches that translate to online sessions

Tesia uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person’s goals and priorities, offering open listening and guidance so clients feel heard and understood. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try new responses to stress, anger, and anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Tesia will work together with the client to decide which methods to try first, check what is or isn’t helping, and adjust the plan over time based on goals and preferences.

Online therapy with Tesia is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging lets people share updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical skill-building.
