About Telisa

Telisa Hayden is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. She offers a calm, listening presence and practical steps people can try between sessions. Her tone is compassionate and straightforward, aimed at adults looking for clear support and steady guidance.

Telisa uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions.

Background and approach

She combines that with tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to tailor care to each person. Sessions focus on small, manageable changes rather than big, vague goals. In the room she listens first, then helps people notice patterns that get in the way.

She teaches skills to manage panic, reduce avoidance, and ease overwhelming emotions. Clients learn ways to respond differently to shame, guilt, abandonment fears, and relationship stress. Telisa has eight years of clinical experience and keeps learning about current methods.

She aims to make therapy practical - working on communication, self-love, coping with separation, and building a clearer sense of purpose. Progress is tracked in simple steps so people can see what’s working. Sessions are offered in English and provided online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Costs vary by location and therapist availability and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support

How attachment work and skills translate to online therapy

Telisa draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past relationships shape current emotions and reactions, helping people notice patterns of avoidance or clinginess and try new ways of relating. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people accept difficult feelings while taking actions that match their values. These approaches work well for anxiety, trauma responses, and struggles with trust or abandonment.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods that feel comfortable, and adjust over time. Sessions balance understanding where problems come from with concrete skills people can use between meetings so progress is steady and measurable.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people work face-to-face when visual connection helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, practicing skills in real time, or when typing feels more comfortable than talking. These options aim to make regular care more flexible and easier to keep up with.
