Mariesa Tinkham
I am a clinical social worker licensed in both Michigan and Georgia currently offering Telehealth services. I began clinical work in Georgia with children and families in January of 2012, and continued community and school-based practice after moving to Michigan in July of 2013. I then transitioned to working in a medical center with clients of all ages in 2015 when I became a behavioral health consultant as part of an integrated care model. I have most recently been building an online counseling practice while completing a doctorate program. I have worked with a wide range of clinical issues including anxiety, depression, grieving, ADHD, bipolar disorder, addictions, trauma, life stress, family issues, relationship problems, and adjusting to life transitions and physical health challenges. My therapeutic approach follows a client-centered perspective that also incorporates elements of collaborative problem-solving. Using a warm, informal style, I enjoy exploring concerns while providing empathy, encouragement, and supportive feedback in a non-judgmental therapeutic environment. I borrow elements of solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing to build a treatment plan that is tailored to each individual client. I enjoy working as a clinician because I believe that every person is resilient and possesses the strengths that make growth and progress possible. As you begin your journey toward finding hope and building positive changes, I will be here to encourage, support, and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
