About Tahaji
Tahaji Smith is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She supports those coping with compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, career stress, and trauma or abuse. Tahaji writes and listens simply and directly to help people take practical next steps.
She uses clear, down-to-earth language in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what a person wants to change.
Background and approach
Tahaji blends methods from Existential therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered work. That mix guides practical goals and moments of meaning rather than jargon. With three years as a clinician and a background in long-term public service, she draws on real-world experience supporting people in crisis and ongoing stress.
Tahaji values honest conversation and steady pacing, and she helps clients break big problems into small, doable steps. Sessions often include gentle challenge, skill practice, and attention to values and relationships. She also supports people facing body image concerns, attachment and abandonment worries, codependency and communication problems, and issues related to divorce, caregiving, or substance use.
People who prefer a practical, reflective approach may find her style helpful. Tahaji aims to create a respectful space for people to talk through feelings, clarify priorities, and try new ways of handling hard situations.

Online support
How approach and format come together online
Existential therapy focuses on questions of meaning, choice, and how people face life’s limits; it helps when a person feels empty, stuck, or unsure about direction. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings and then act in line with personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and emphasizes empathy and nonjudgmental listening to help people feel heard and understood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. That decision is collaborative and can shift over time as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different days and schedules. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be easier when a quieter connection is needed, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging helps with brief support between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent even with busy or changing schedules.
