Hello, my name is Tenisha Seniguar-Morakinyo, LPCC License13468 with over 9 years of experience working with diverse populations. My approach to therapy is every individual is valuable and deserves to be heard and treated with dignity and respect by taking a non-judgment stance. I respect clients' legal rights to confidentiality to create a safe environment to develop trust and a strong therapeutic alliance. I am a firm believer that clients are the experts in their own lives. They know exactly what they want and need.

I specialize in helping people who feel stuck in emotionally painful and destructive patterns in life. Life can be lonely and difficult and uncertain. I strive to help you ease your emotional burden and find a lightness in life. Stress has a way of making us forget that we need each other, and that it can be safe and comforting to connect. So, as a therapist, I focus on helping you re-connect with yourself and the people and things you love. I’ll help you stand up tall in your truth even when it’s “messy.”

Sometimes it can feel like all hope is lost. Whether you're facing chronic mental or physical health problems, difficult losses, or confusion about where to go next - I'll help you find hope and balance amidst life's obstacles.

I help people learn to become the hero of their own story. Each new transition you face in life is an opportunity to expand and refine your identity... but there are also pitfalls. We get hurt, we lose our way, we get caught up in shame and self-doubt. I work with a lot of grief, loss, and confusion around life changes. I've got a lot of experience with folks who have been adopted or in foster care — and people who find themselves feeling alone after a split from their family, their culture, or their religious faith. I'm passionate about helping people find their way into the next, better chapter of life.

We are living in a fast-moving world that can affect our ability to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. In this era of digital communication, you may find yourself feeling disconnected from your body while interacting in real life. If you feel you have lost touch with the emotional, physical, and social parts of yourself, I am here to help you on the path to becoming your best self. I hope I can guide you to connect to your spirit and soul and find new outlets of healthy expression and heal from past traumas. I approach therapy through the mind and body connection and focus on your strengths and gifts.

The truth about mental health is that being mentally healthy is not simply being happy all the time and perfect relationships are not born they are built. It is a fact that life is full of twists and turns with amazing highs and heartbreaking lows, not just for the individual but for couples and families as well. True mental health is the ability to navigate through these points while embracing the full range of your emotions and honoring them and every part of yourself! This is the stuff that mentally healthy and strong people and relationships are made of and this is where my passion lies!

I have been in private practice for the last 15 years. I work with individuals. Most of my clients are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or all three. Typically they are making their way through a major upheaval in their lives, such as divorce, tragic loss, job stress, severe communication problems, and strained family relationships. They're often depressed, angry, confused, or anxious. My work with couples and families is for the most part communication therapy. I never stop being amazed when clients explain to me that for the first time they're feeling heard, really heard, by their partners, children, or parents.
