About Tiaira
Tiaira Willis- Haynes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with six years of clinical experience in Louisiana. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, depression, addictions, and life transitions. Tiaira commonly helps people dealing with parenting strain, anger, intimacy-related issues, and questions about career and purpose.
She favors Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which she uses to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and actions. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy for concerns that need clear, short-term steps. In sessions she uses practical strategies alongside listening and reflection.
Tiaira’s background includes a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling completed in 2018 and licensure as an LPC in Louisiana (LA LPC) and Texas (TX LPC). Over the past six years she has worked with people facing domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, post-traumatic stress, and obsessive-compulsive concerns, as well as more everyday struggles like money worries and social anxiety.
Sessions typically focus on skills you can use right away - thinking patterns, coping tools, problem-solving, and steps you can test between meetings. She aims to be direct and practical when helping clients set goals and try changes.
Tiaira balances clinical work with family life and says she first grew interested in counseling during college. She asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before scheduling a first session so she can understand their needs and match the work to their goals.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client guides the topics and pace; it helps when someone wants to understand feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, teaching practical exercises and short experiments that people can try between sessions to reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, useful for anger, stress, and self-regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and then suggest approaches to try. That decision is shared and can change as needs do.
The practical benefit of online sessions is they can fit into a busy young adult life - shorter commutes, easier scheduling around classes or shifts, and quicker check-ins when problems pop up. Because the biography did not list specific session formats, confirm the exact online options before booking. Ask about session length and whether video or phone meetings are offered so you can pick what fits your schedule and bandwidth.
