About Tisela

Tisela Viera is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and major life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and draws on ten years of clinical experience to guide conversations and plan steps forward.

She aims to create an open, non-judgmental space where people can talk through difficult feelings. Sessions center on discovering personal strengths and building practical coping skills.

Background and approach

Tisela encourages small, manageable changes that fit each person’s day-to-day life. Her background includes extended work with people managing chronic pain, serious illness, and cancer-related concerns. She also supports those dealing with family of origin issues, communication struggles, control issues, and feelings of isolation.

Financial stress, questions about life purpose, and challenges around forgiveness, guilt, and shame are also areas she addresses. Tisela uses several therapy approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on Narrative Therapy to help people reframe personal stories and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to focus on values and actions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing inform practical skill-building and decision-making. People who choose Tisela can expect straightforward, compassionate sessions that connect feelings to small steps forward. She works with a subscription model for online sessions that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling follow the Start Therapy process.

Online session options

How her approaches work online

Therapy with Tisela commonly draws on Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and consider different meanings for those stories, which can be useful for grief, trauma, and life transitions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings are present, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with chronic illness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tisela will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges to decide which methods to emphasize. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues during deeper conversations, phone sessions can fit into a work break or when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options provide flexibility for scheduling and for choosing how to connect on different days.
