About Tameka

Tameka McFarland is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who owns and manages a thriving private practice in North Carolina. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 2004, and completed a Master of Science degree at Capella University in 2017. She is also a certified proficient life coach and has been licensed since December 2017.

She works with adults ages 18 and up across all ethnicities and sexual orientations, offering therapy to individuals, couples who are dating, planning to marry, currently married, or considering divorce, and to families seeking support with parenting and relational concerns. Her practice emphasizes treatment of emotional issues that affect intimacy and family dynamics, and she frequently sees couples and families while also working with individual clients.

Her clinical toolkit includes Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, applied to address relationship challenges, parenting concerns, self-esteem and body image issues, anxiety and depression, grief, and life transitions. She also provides Cranial Electrotherapy as a treatment option for anxiety, insomnia, mood disorders, and chronic pain. Tameka focuses on strengths-based, practical strategies to help clients navigate commitment and communication problems, attachment and abandonment-related concerns, blended family challenges, and other family of origin issues.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps partners and family members identify and reshape negative interaction patterns by focusing on underlying emotions and attachment needs, which can improve closeness and repair ruptures. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering practical tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current connection styles and can be especially useful for clients dealing with abandonment, trust, or intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tameka McFarland works collaboratively with each person or couple to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She integrates techniques as needed so the plan evolves with the client's progress.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient settings. These formats support consistent engagement and make it easier for therapists and clients to maintain momentum between appointments.
