Tasha Temple

I hold a Master of Education with a concentration in Counseling and Development and Master of Human Nutrition both from Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Registered Dietitian / Nutritionist, Licensed Dietitian / Nutritionist and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. I am committed to providing researched-based, scientifically proven techniques and solutions with honesty, integrity, professionalism, respect and confidentiality.

Having worked in the field of mental health and wellness for 20+ years, I have developed empathy which allows me the ability to understand your feeling, resulting in enhancing effectiveness in being able to provide you support and building rapport. I also practice active listening which provides an environment where I listen attentively and without judgment, thus opening the door for true understanding of your concerns and needs, fostering a therapeutic relationship built on trust and understanding.

In your first session, you can expect a supportive and collaborative space where we discuss your concerns, goals, and what brings you to counseling. We will review how therapy works, what participation looks like, and how change typically unfolds over time. I will gather background information to better understand your experiences, and together we’ll begin identifying patterns, strengths, and areas for growth. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions, set expectations, and determine whether this approach feels like a good fit for you.
