About Tesia
Tesia Wells is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of clinical experience. She centers sessions on building trust and clear communication so people can talk about what matters most. Her approach is grounded in listening first and helping clients find practical steps forward.
In session she emphasizes collaboration. She helps people identify patterns in relationships, family roles, and money habits that cause stress or confusion. She also supports those coping with grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance concerns. Tesia addresses intimacy, body image, sleep and eating difficulties, and issues tied to identity and multicultural stressors.
Tesia blends several therapeutic styles to suit each person’s needs. She draws on client-centered work to create a respectful space, uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and incorporates narrative and psychodynamic ideas to look at life stories and past influences. This mix helps people gain immediate tools and longer-term insight.
She has experience helping people navigate parenting challenges, fatherhood issues, family-of-origin problems, veteran and armed forces concerns, and sexual trauma. Money and financial issues are also a named focus and are brought into therapy in practical ways that connect emotions and decision-making.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, listening-based relationship where the client sets the pace and priorities; this helps people feel heard and understood before moving into practical change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers clear tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change habits that get in the way. Narrative therapy helps people separate themselves from the problems they face by looking at life stories and reshaping the meaning they give to events.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tesia will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, values, and comfort. That collaboration can mean trying a few strategies and keeping what helps most while dropping what doesn't.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can be easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online conversations can also let therapy focus on real-life decisions such as managing money habits, handling family interactions, or practicing new communication skills in between sessions.
