Tashar TurnerLCSW

Tashar Turner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum concerns. She offers a calm, respectful presence for people facing medical and life changes. She aims to help clients feel heard, understood, and supported as they move through difficult moments.

Turner spent the past 12 years working in hospital settings alongside Maternal-Fetal Medicine, OB Emergency, Labor and Delivery, Mother Baby/Postpartum, and the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. That work gave her hands-on experience with the emotional fallout of high-risk pregnancies, NICU hospitalization, and complications during pregnancy and birth. She helps people process loss, grief, and the shock that can come with unexpected medical news.

Her practice also addresses anxiety, depression, panic, and the stresses that come with caregiving and major life transitions. She works with people facing infertility concerns, stillbirth, fetal demise, postpartum depression, and related women's health issues. Turner aims to create practical coping steps that fit day-to-day life.

Therapeutic sessions are described as warm, collaborative, and strengths based. She uses trauma-informed care and person-centered conversation to identify goals and build coping skills. Techniques she may draw on include cognitive behavioral ideas, solution-focused strategies, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and grief support.

Turner welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds, including members of the LGBTQIA+ community. She practices in Florida and communicates in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Many of the evidence-based techniques mentioned in her background can be explained in straightforward ways. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness practices teach simple breathing and attention exercises to lower stress and help with panic symptoms.

These approaches are used in a collaborative way. The therapist will work with the client to pick techniques that fit the person’s goals and daily life. Together they will try approaches, check what helps, and adjust the plan based on responses and preferences.

If you prefer online work, confirm the available session formats before booking. The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or regular weekly sessions, and it allows focus on skills practice that can be used between appointments. Licensed professionals can guide clients through coping strategies, grief processing, and postpartum concerns while helping tailor the pace and tools to each person’s needs.
