About Teanna

Teanna Diggs is a licensed clinician with eight years of experience working with professionals and individuals focused on growth, performance, and practical change. She holds MD, LCSW-C, and LCSW credentials and practices in Maryland.

Background and approach

Her clinical work emphasizes motivation, confidence, and self-esteem while addressing executive skills like organization, focus, and follow-through, including challenges related to ADHD. Her style is collaborative and strengths-based, blending action-oriented coaching with psychotherapeutic methods to help clients move from where they are to where they want to be.

She partners with clients to identify barriers, set clear goals, and build concrete strategies that encourage steady progress. Clients can expect an approach that balances challenge and support while fostering personal responsibility and sustainable habits.

Teanna integrates several evidence-informed methods to match a client's needs, drawing on cognitive, attachment, and emotionally focused techniques alongside acceptance-oriented practices. She emphasizes practical tools and mindset shifts that support lasting change, whether the focus is professional performance, parenting concerns, life transitions, or cultivating greater self-love and purpose.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes identifying personal values and taking committed action toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings; it can be helpful for motivation, meaning, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and provides practical skills for improving focus, organization, and follow-through. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns rooted in early bonds and can support work around communication, intimacy, and emotional connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will collaborate with clients to find the best fit. She will assess needs, goals, and preferences together with each client and adapt methods over time so interventions align with what the person hopes to accomplish.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible ways to engage in treatment from different settings. These formats make it easier to maintain regular sessions amid busy schedules, support timely problem solving between meetings, and allow clients to work with a licensed professional from where they are located.
