About Tenecia
Tenecia Funches is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi who focuses on helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and challenges with self-esteem and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
She draws on a decade of clinical experience to support people working through communication problems, impulsivity, social anxiety and phobia, and efforts to build self-love. As a published author on social anxiety, she brings both practical insight and an informed perspective to anxiety-related concerns.
Her approach emphasizes self-awareness and insight as useful components of change, combined with collaborative effort between therapist and client. Tenecia aims to create a therapeutic environment where growth and new coping strategies can emerge, and she offers faith-informed counseling for clients who prefer a Christian perspective.
She encourages clients to engage in the active work of therapy while recognizing that change often takes time and persistence.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Therapy Options
Tenecia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach often focuses on practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage mood. She also incorporates Client-Centered Therapy, meeting people with empathy and respect while helping them explore their values and self-awareness to guide change.Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to consider their goals, preferences, and specific concerns, and together they will decide whether CBT, client-centered methods, or solution-focused strategies best fit the work ahead.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain regular contact, practice strategies between sessions, and access care from home or other convenient locations.
