About Tieesha
Tieesha Ketchings-Holmes is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 13 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strains, grief, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and anger. She also helps people managing life changes and caregiving pressures.
Tieesha keeps sessions interactive and direct. She listens first, then helps people name what is getting in the way of daily functioning. Practical steps and small behavior changes are a common focus. She draws on methods that encourage clear goals and measurable progress.
Her work often looks at patterns that repeat in relationships and how those patterns link to feelings like resentment or frustration. She uses conversations to help people notice triggers and try different responses. That can reduce arguments and lower the build-up of anger over time.
Tieesha also helps with practical problem solving for things like communication breakdowns, life transitions, chronic health challenges, and caregiving stress. She uses straightforward tools to break big problems into manageable next steps.
Clients can expect a collaborative style where their experience guides the priorities. Tieesha describes people as the experts on their own lives and focuses on leveraging their strengths to address current struggles.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Tieesha commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy means sessions focus on the persons perspective and priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting to clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anger or anxiety.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation guides whether to emphasize skills practice, short-term problem solving, or open exploration of relationship patterns.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a workday, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. Tieesha will help match session pacing and focus to your schedule and aims rather than promising a particular format.
