About Tenecia

Tenecia Funches, LPC, helps people manage stress and anxiety and build clearer ways to cope. She focuses on practical steps that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Her approach emphasizes self-awareness and steady progress, with support for depression, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

She asks for commitment to the work and meets people where they are. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep problems going and to try small, doable changes. Tenecia uses evidence-informed methods to teach concrete coping skills and improve communication patterns.

Her background includes a decade of clinical experience in counseling adults. She has published on social anxiety and draws on that knowledge when helping people understand anxious symptoms and reactions. Tenecia also offers options that integrate a client’s Christian faith when that is helpful.

In practical terms she helps people spot triggers, practice new responses, and build routines that support better mood and less reactivity. She also addresses impulsivity and social anxiety with step-by-step strategies. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Therapeutic approaches and how they help online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person and their experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps the client lead the direction of change. This approach helps when someone needs space to understand their feelings and decide what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and to try new behaviors. This method is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing reactivity like anger or impulsivity.

Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, achievable changes. Sessions emphasize strengths and quick steps that can make daily life easier. It works well when someone wants short-term, goal-directed help.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and values. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting as progress is made.

Confirm current online session options before booking, since formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people continue care when circumstances change, with the therapist helping to adapt session length and focus to practical needs.
