About

Telisa Hayden is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from South University and is licensed under FL LMHC MH20143. Telisa works with individuals, couples, and families across a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self esteem, and coping with life changes.

Her practice also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, panic and post-traumatic stress, communication and control challenges, and body image or social anxiety concerns. Telisa describes her approach as supportive, non-judgmental, and compassionate, and she uses active listening to help people identify strengths and create personalized paths toward emotional wellbeing.

Clinically, she draws from several evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Existential Therapy. Telisa maintains a commitment to ongoing learning and applies these frameworks to tailor work to each client’s needs rather than applying one fixed method.

Remote therapy options and therapeutic approaches



Telisa offers online work that blends practical skills training with exploration of personal meaning. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, she helps people notice what matters to them, practice present-moment awareness, and take values-driven action. In Cognitive Behavioral Therapy she focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and developing concrete strategies to shift unhelpful cycles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is available when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, or interpersonal effectiveness skills are priorities.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual, couple, or family. Telisa emphasizes active listening and co-creating goals so that the approach reflects each person’s priorities. Remote sessions are conducted by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility in how people connect while maintaining consistent therapeutic focus.

Those who prefer combining skill-based work with deeper exploration of relationships and meaning may find this blend of methods a practical fit. Telisa adapts techniques from multiple approaches to suit the presenting concern and the client’s style of engagement.
