About Daveisha

Daveisha Tanck is a licensed clinical social worker who centers therapeutic work on understanding internal parts and building practical coping skills.

Background and approach

With seven years of clinical experience, she combines Internal Family Systems with client-centered and cognitive behavioral strategies to help people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, and trauma-related difficulties. She aims to create a collaborative space where clients can explore patterns, identify protective parts, and practice new ways of responding.

Her approach is described as warm, open, and relaxed, and she is comfortable addressing difficult topics with sensitivity and respect. Sessions are tailored to each person’s unique needs, with attention to issues such as intimacy-related struggles, self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes.

Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family dynamics, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, and forgiveness. Based in North Carolina and practicing in English, she offers multiple online session formats to fit clients’ schedules and preferences.

Practical solutions, empathy, and a commitment to individualized care guide her work with people seeking support for relationship and personal challenges.

Integrating relational approaches with accessible online care

Internal Family Systems invites clients to meet and understand the different parts of themselves - protective, vulnerable, and reactive - so they can heal from trauma, reduce internal conflict, and improve relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, creating a supportive environment where clients guide the pace and focus of work while the therapist provides validation and reflective listening. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then adapt methods over time so the work feels relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to enhance accessibility and scheduling flexibility. These formats allow clients to engage in therapy from their own locations, making it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing daily responsibilities and varying comfort with different communication styles.
