I'm Tasha Chimbila, an LMSW at Sankofa Counseling. We believe that a strength-based, person-centered foundation combined with unconditional positive regard is essential to change and healing.
I have a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from Fordham University in New York City. My MSW has concentrations in Clinical mental health and Community-based practice and Leadership. I am a Licensed Master’s Social Worker pursuing my LCSW. I help individuals overcome both emotional and societal obstacles with the end goal of bettering their lives.
At Sankofa, we understand and appreciate the meaning and the magnitude of the Akan word Sankofa. We stand on this principle whether it was one’s humanity, innocence, dignity, or any other precious life-affirming thing that was taken. Especially, if the loss has negatively impacted how one came to be who they are today.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or anxiety related to their relationships. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see gradual improvement of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement after that.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll explore how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
