About Tunjua

Tunjua Nathaniel is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 26 years of experience. She supports people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and big life changes. Her approach is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping clients notice what gets in the way and try different ways of coping.

She works with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, addiction, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Relationship issues and communication problems are a frequent focus in her work. Tunjua also helps people facing career stress, self-esteem struggles, and mood conditions such as bipolar disorder.

Her clinical work draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, and dialectical behavior ideas to teach practical skills for managing emotions and behaviors. She also uses emotionally-focused techniques to address relational patterns, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing for trauma work when appropriate. Sessions aim to be practical and grounded in everyday life.

Tunjua emphasizes collaboration. She invites clients to name goals and tries different tools until something fits. Over time she helps people strengthen communication, build healthier routines, and reconnect with what matters to them.

She practices in Florida and conducts therapy in English. Prospective clients can expect a straightforward, respectful approach that balances emotional care with skill building.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and priorities. Online sessions using this approach focus on listening, reflecting, and helping clients set goals that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches straightforward skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online CBT often uses short exercises and between-session practice to build new habits. Emotionally-focused therapy works with feelings and interaction patterns to improve closeness and communication; in online sessions it can help people notice and shift recurring relationship dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current needs. That can mean combining approaches or adjusting techniques as progress is made.

Confirm the specific session options when you book so you know how sessions will be scheduled and delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when full sessions are harder to arrange. Talk with the therapist about pacing, homework, and how to use sessions most effectively within your daily routine.
