About Tia
Tia Jackson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, relationship strain, grief, and mood concerns. Her approach aims to boost everyday coping and self-esteem so clients feel more able to handle life changes.
She listens closely and pays attention to each person's story. Sessions are conversational and practical. She uses a mix of methods to help clients try new ways of thinking and acting that fit their life.
Background and approach
Tia draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and take small steps toward valued goals. She also uses Client-Centered and Solution-Focused techniques to keep work grounded in each person's priorities. Motivational Interviewing can help with readiness to change when addictions or habit shifts are involved.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Tennessee, and a Master of Business Administration with a concentration in health care management. She holds the LCSW credential and practices in Tennessee. Clients can expect clear, down-to-earth guidance and an emphasis on realistic skills.
Sessions aim to leave people with tools they can use between meetings. The work moves at a pace set by the client's needs and goals.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that matter to them. It is useful when someone wants to reduce avoidance and build a life aligned with their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood.Tia approaches care collaboratively. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit those needs. If something does not feel right she will adjust the plan together so the work remains useful and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a simpler check-in is preferred. Messaging and live chat let people send updates between sessions or have shorter focused check-ins when that format fits their schedule.
These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, handle time zone or travel constraints, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
