Tiniya Bolden is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with seven years of practice based in New York. She earned her Master of Social Work from Silberman School of Social Work in 2014 and has focused her career on supporting people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and related challenges. Bolden emphasizes building a strong connection with each person she meets and creating a space for honest conversation.
She has spent much of her career in supportive housing and community settings, working with people coping with substance use, homelessness histories, health concerns, and involvement with child welfare or the justice system. That background shaped a practical approach to everyday problems like stress, anger, parenting strain, workplace issues, and money worries. She also helps people who are navigating mood disorders, panic, post-traumatic stress, and self-esteem struggles.
In sessions she combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, among other methods, keeping the work focused on the client’s goals. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy inform short-term planning and steps toward change. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe difficult life stories and regain a sense of direction.
Her style is direct and nonjudgmental. She listens for the problem behind the problem and helps you try practical, manageable steps. Many clients find relief from having a different perspective and a steady person to talk things through with.
If you decide to start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and details about formats and times should be confirmed when booking.
Approach-driven work for online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a listening space and clear feedback to make decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, panic, and mood swings. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck and want to find their own reasons to change by using guided conversation and small goal-setting.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress or challenges appear.
Confirm the session formats before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing sessions during breaks, evenings, or weekend windows. It can also let someone choose a shorter check-in when needed or a video conversation when more connection is wanted. Licensed professionals and therapists can help figure out which rhythm and format best support daily routines and therapeutic goals.
