Meet Tiana Teague, LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Owner and Founder of Bridge2Therapy

Tiana started her career at Howard University where she earned her bachelor's degree. While studying at Howard she developed an interest in family and relationship issues which led to her desiring a career where she could help people heal their relationships. She went on to earn her master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Mercer University School of Medicine. Tiana has worked with a variety of presenting problems but takes special interest in treating Anxiety/Depression, Trauma, Low Self-Esteem and Relationships issues.  She currently serves as Program Director at Alliance Recovery Center which provides a holistic approach in treating opioid addiction.

In her down time, Tiana enjoys spending time in the gym as she was a former collegiate track and field athlete. In addition to working out, she loves to travel, read, cook and engage in new experiences with her significant other, family and friends. Furthermore, she will bring her humorous, candidness and compassionate personality to the room.

Tiana believes each client is unique, so she does not approach every client in the same way. She uses a variety of approaches depending on the individual and the presenting problem, including person-centered therapy, experiential therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness.  She strives to help individuals struggling with self-acceptance, self-criticism, people-pleasing, comparison, trust issues, insecurities, and past trauma to find healing. Her passion is helping individuals develop positive views of themselves and adopt positive attitudes toward life.  She is committed to helping you find a sense of security in yourself and in your relationships.

As a relationship therapist, Tiana prefers the Emotionally Focused Therapy approach when helping couples. She is passionate about helping couples who struggle with communication, trust issues, infidelity, and insecurities. She believes each couple has a negative cycle pattern that they get stuck in which leads to disconnection in their relationship. With her training, she helps couples develop proper skills to effectively communicate and understand how their own triggers and underlying emotions affect how they communicate with their partner. She also will explore unhealed trauma and insecurities that couples may project onto their partner. Her goal is to help couples feel heard and connected.
