About Tabatha
Tabatha Sapene is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) in Ohio with 24 years of professional experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She supports those coping with grief, compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, sleep concerns, and career stress. Tabatha also works with issues like communication problems, control struggles, dissociation, and isolation.
Her approach centers on listening and tailoring conversations to each person’s needs. Tabatha uses Client-Centered Therapy alongside tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally-focused work. She also draws on mindfulness, solution-focused techniques, and somatic ideas when these fit the situation.
Tabatha speaks plainly about practical steps people can try between sessions. She emphasizes small, manageable changes such as shifting daily habits, building boundaries, and practicing brief mindful exercises. The goal is to help people feel steadier and more able to handle stressors.
Her background includes study in neuroscience, natural health and healing, and mindfulness methods, and she has written a book of spiritual affirmations called Mental Alchemy Spiritual Affirmations to Change Your Life. That work complements her interest in how behavior, diet, and routine affect the brain and mood.
People who choose Tabatha can expect a respectful, compassionate tone and a plan shaped around their goals. She invites clients to take the first steps and commits to adjusting the work as needs change.
How these approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy and listening. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflecting concerns and priorities back so goals become clearer. This approach helps people who need a calm space to sort feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses short exercises and practical experiments to shift unhelpful thinking and build new habits. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and stress that interferes with daily life.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding emotional responses and how they shape relationships with self and others. It helps people notice patterns and create new ways of responding when emotions feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals, try methods together, and adjust strategies based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to focus on practical changes that fit each person's life.
Confirm available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where they live and work, then bring observations back to the session for discussion.
