About Talunja
Talunja Eskridge is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with 10 years of counseling experience. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, substance use, relationship strain, grief, and anger. She also addresses stress, self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, career questions, and coping with life changes.
Talunja began her career in social work before earning a Master of Science and her LPC credential. That background informs how she approaches problems - practical, person-focused help rather than technical jargon. She listens to what matters most and then works with each person to find workable steps forward.
Her practice emphasizes Client-Centered Therapy. In sessions she focuses on understanding a person's experience and exploring what they want to change. Conversations aim to clarify patterns that fuel anger, resentment, or repeated conflict and identify small, concrete shifts that reduce those moments.
Talunja has experience supporting people dealing with substance use alongside other struggles. She uses straightforward problem solving and attention to life circumstances when helping people manage stress and rebuild routines. Her social work background also adds familiarity with community resources and practical supports.
Her approach is direct and collaborative. She helps people name what is happening, try new responses, and track whether those responses feel better. People considering work with her are encouraged to check session options and follow the booking steps on the site before scheduling.
Client-Centered approaches and online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening to the person's own priorities and following their pace. The therapist reflects what she hears, asks clarifying questions, and supports people as they decide what to try next. This approach is useful for issues like anger, relationship strain, depression, and anxiety because it starts with the person's real experience rather than a fixed plan.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking how they feel, and adjusting plans together rather than promising a single solution.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people continue care from different locations within the same state. Ask about available session types when scheduling so arrangements match everyday life and practical constraints.
