About Talunja
Talunja Eskridge is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi. She uses a client-centered approach to create space for people to share worries and sort through difficult feelings. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood before moving to next steps.
She brings a decade of experience as an LPC and earlier work as a social worker. That background shaped how she responds to trauma, domestic violence, substance use concerns, depression, and anxiety. She focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions.
Sessions are organized around the person in front of her. Conversations start with what matters most now, then move toward coping skills and problem solving. She pays attention to how life stress, relationships, and grief affect mood and behavior.
Talunja values up-to-date practice and reads research to inform her work. Her approach is flexible and grounded in listening first, then helping clients set realistic goals. She explains options plainly and helps people weigh what might work best.
Many clients come for help with addiction challenges, bipolar or mood concerns, anger, and self-esteem issues. She also supports people facing career strain, family conflict, and major life transitions. Her aim is to help people change day-to-day patterns so they feel more capable and calm.
Client-Centered Care and Online Therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience by listening without judgment and reflecting what is heard. This approach helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, or questions about identity feel recognized and begin to try new ways of coping.That same listening-first stance can be helpful online. The therapist will work with the client to decide which therapeutic steps fit current needs, whether that means building coping skills, addressing substance use patterns, or managing mood symptoms. The choice of methods is collaborative and revisited as goals change.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time so people can keep regular appointments. Online work can make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes. Since specific session formats are not listed in the profile, confirm current session options before booking to know how appointments will be delivered. A therapist and client together can adjust pacing, homework, and check-ins so therapy fits daily life and goals.
