Taneka White

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 28 years of professional experience in the mental and behavioral health field, I understand the importance and impact of mental health on our overall health, happiness, stability, and relationships. The journey to healing can be scary and hard for many, and I appreciate your courage to heal. My personal lived experiences, along with my professional and educational background, provide me with skills and knowledge that will add value to the quality of your life and your relationships with yourself and others.

If you find yourself feeling misunderstood, frustrated, sad, alone, lonely, disconnected, and uncertain in your relationships, and you want more relationship success, deeper connection, fulfilled needs in your relationships, and to feel seen, heard, and understood, I can help you nurture and invest in your relational wealth (having strong, positive, quality, not just quantity, relationships and social connections), so you can experience emotional security, trust, a sense of belonging, and the quality of relationships you desire.

My approach to therapy is unique to each client and their specific concerns. I approach treatment with transparency, respect, and curiosity. My work will take you to the places that need healing in you and your relationships. Treatment will focus on addressing your emotional and relational experiences with self and others, with a goal of bridging the gap between where and who you currently are and where and who you want to become. My approach is warm, supportive, and compassionate, and my knowledge and keen perception and awareness helps me to connect deeply with couple's, individuals, and families in a way that feels safe and helps you cultivate courage to face your challenges, grow, and heal from the inside out.

Initial sessions with me will be a time for me to learn about your life story and goals for therapy. Clients that work with me can expect to feel welcomed, comfortable, safe, and secure. You can expect to gain insight and self and other awareness into your emotional needs and the emotional needs of love ones. You will better understand and be able to experience the full spectrum of human emotions in ways that allow you to healthily use your voice, walk in your power, and not shrink. You will learn to thrive in your life and relationships in ways that bring about a renewed sense of deep connection, fulfillment, clarity, joy, and peace.
