About Tashica

Tashica Halyard is a licensed counselor who supports people seeking relief from stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, grief, and ADHD among other concerns. She emphasizes collaborative work that helps clients identify values, build practical skills, and navigate life transitions.

Background and approach

With eight years of clinical experience, she draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person’s goals. Halyard creates a nonjudgmental space that invites honest exploration of thoughts, feelings, and patterns.

Her background includes work with clients facing intimacy and attachment issues, parenting and family challenges, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar symptoms, and struggles related to substance use and compassion fatigue. She weaves acceptance-based and skills-oriented approaches to help clients increase psychological flexibility, strengthen communication, and manage distress more effectively.

Licensed as an LPC and LCPC and practicing in Maryland, Halyard offers sessions in English and is available to international clients. She supports clients through a subscription-based session model that can be adjusted as needs change, and she helps newcomers get started through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process.

Integrating Approach and Access in Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and develop willingness to experience difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing concrete skills to change behaviors and reduce distress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses to improve connection and communication in close relationships.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy with this clinician is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and they allow clients to access licensed professionals from various locations.
