About Tia

Tia Jackson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 27 years of experience based in Tennessee. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, addiction, grief, mood disorders, and other life changes. Tia also addresses family-of-origin concerns, caregiver stress, and issues around adoption and blended families.

Her approach is practical and person-focused. She uses familiar, evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions typically include talking through current problems, building coping skills, and trying small, manageable steps between meetings.

Tia draws on work across clinical settings with individuals, groups, and families. Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Master of Science in Social Work, and an MBA with a concentration in health care management. She holds Tennessee LCSW and MS LCSW credentials.

In practice she listens closely and asks practical questions to identify what matters most right now. Conversations aim to reduce overwhelm and increase clear options for the next steps. People leave sessions with specific skills to use when anxiety or stress spikes.

Her style suits people who want straightforward, skills-based support and occasional coaching. Prospective clients who need services in English can follow the practice's intake steps to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her methods translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making choices that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and managing stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and the client’s own perspective to guide change and build confidence in decision making.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. That plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or travel and can reduce time spent on commuting. Some approaches lend themselves to short skill-focused check-ins, while others use longer sessions for in-depth work; the therapist will recommend what fits a person’s schedule and goals.
