Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or stress, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast paced, demanding world.
The good news is, asking for help gets easier with a little practice. The way in which we cope in the world is greatly influenced by how we see the world. Asking for help, and obtaining a fresh perspective is often the first and most profound step toward developing the mental muscle needed to become stronger. The more support you gain, the better equipped you will be to take on bigger challenges and achieve more successes.

Shanea McDaniel
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Seeking mental health care is a courageous step, and my goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout your journey. As a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 18 years of nursing experience, I believe that effective treatment begins with understanding the whole person—not just the diagnosis.
I work collaboratively with each client to develop personalized treatment plans that align with their goals, values, and lifestyle. While medication can be an important part of treatment, I also incorporate evidence-based psychotherapy, holistic strategies, and practical coping skills to help clients build lasting emotional wellness. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and focused on creating meaningful, long-term change rather than simply managing symptoms.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, women's mental health concerns, or life transitions, I strive to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that helps you regain confidence, resilience, and balance. I am passionate about reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and making high-quality psychiatric care accessible through convenient virtual appointments.
